If you read a book on GR, can you add a bookmark? How does it work?

[LauraT]

How does the "reading on goodreads" work in general?

Yes, you can add bookmarks, at least when using the app. My experience has been that reading ebooks through GoodReads works best through the app rather than the website, although you can do it on the website too. Be sure that you are getting the whole book and not an excerpt though - I have been misled a few times!

On the iPod app, there is a button for ebooks and it is pretty self-explanatory. One nice part of using the app is you can 'download' certain titles you are interested in for reading later (sort of like an ebook bookshelf).

On the website, ebooks are under "Explore" on the top banner. I haven't found a way to sort the offerings so you just have to scroll through... Or if you know that a book is available (such as this one that Amber read), you can access the ebook from the book's page. On the left, underneath where you would put your rating (under the stars), there is a green button that says "read book". Clicking on it will open the ebook.

Sorry to be so long. Hope that was helpful...

Which app? If I don't go wrong there isn't an app for Windows phones (and it would be impossible to read an ebook on my smartphone, it's too small). I don't have an ipad or an ipod.

I don't know if there is an app for Windows phone, but I would guess that there is. I can't believe that the screen is much smaller than an iPod screen - it isn't ideal but a nice option when you are stuck somewhere without a book (doctor's waiting room, in the car waiting to pick someone up, etc.).

[Amber]

Yeah on my 13th book just go to the book's page and click on read book. It was only 10 pages clumped together on the goodreads e-reader so you had to scroll down.

Thanks. No, I wouldn't be able to read on my smartphone, my eyes couldn't bear it!

[Amber]

Hey dely. you can read it on a regular computer when you are logged in to goodreads. :)

Do you know if there is a bookmark if I read it on the computer if I should read a long book?

[Amber]

I don't know if there is dely but the one I read on there had all 10 pages crumpled together where you scrolled down for Hunter by Will Wheaton. It says that if you click on read book and you read it on a computer, it has it where you can click on save place and it'll bookmark it for you.

One day I must try. Thanks ;)

[Amber]

No problem dely. If you do read the one I listed as book 13, it's only 10 pages so you are scrolling down the whole time. It's a pretty good read. :)

[Amber]

17. Littletown Secrets-This is a cute little children's short story collection which includes the seven deadly sins.This is an ebook I got for free and downloaded it to my ereader to my android tablet on goodreads. the author is from Trinidad and Tobago which is cool too but thought it was cool he did a type of stories that had morals to them like (view spoiler)[ Don't eat so much or you get swallowed by a tree and wearing a beautiful mask makes you vain.(view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

I just finished a book too, and was thinking I might start Little Men tomorrow. How would that work for you?

[Amber]

Awesome Leslie! I haven't got to Little Men yet as I am reading a tamora pierce book called Battle Magic right now and another ebook that is a read 4 review request for an author friend but I hope to get to Little Men soon. If you like, you can start it, and I can catch up with you before the month ends.

I can wait a few days if that is more convenient.

[Amber]

Could we start on the 25th as originally planned Leslie? I can try to have the books I am currently reading done by then.

Sure. I will look for something else to read in between time then.

[Amber]

Okay awesome. Thanks! ^_^ At least 22 books so far read this year is not bad for me. We'll see how many books I'll get to by the end of the year.
