A question:I got onto Goodreads - I was supposedly doing ...

A question:

I got onto Goodreads - I was supposedly doing a Q&A there, but there were no Q's - and a number of people have said they'd like to be my "Friends" there and they'd like to follow my "reviews." Does anybody here know HOW one goes about putting up "reviews" on Goodreads? I'd like to do so, and can't figure it out (there isn't even a link for it, and the "recommendations" link seems to dump me into OTHER peoples' recommendations for ME... of which I get tons without even going onto Goodreads.

And, I'm not going to tell Goodreads' search-engine what kind of books I like because I don't share that information... all it gets is tons of unsolicited recommendations that I'm not interested in.

But if people want reviews and recommendations from ME - and it would be mostly research books - how would I do that?

Many thanks.

(By the way, I DID figure out where the stylus was on the Nintendo DS, but I find I actually like using a bamboo skewer instead. It's longer and handles better).

Carol Have you figured it out yet, Barbara? I think Goodreads are linked to your blog on your website. What you write there appears here on your page and the home pages of your fans. Hope that helps.

Hyarrowen Just in case no-one's answered this (which I find a bit difficult to believe from such an author, but still..!) click on the 'add to my books' button under the cover picture of the book you want to review. Click on the number of stars you'd like to award it, too, if you want. After that, another button appears just underneath the cover, saying "edit my review"; click on that, and a box opens up for your text.
