Danielle Girl (daniellekgirl) | 3 comments Hi guys,

Wondering how you add your book and the 'want to read' link into your author blogs? I know you can use the 'add author/book' link but that's not quite what I'm after. I've seen other authors's blogs and noticed they have somehow included the book cover with the 'want to read' button beneath it - how do I do that??
Have looked through widgets but couldn't see an appropriate one.

Cheers
Danielle

It sounds like you might be referring to the "add to my books", which is one of our author-specific widgets. You can access these by:

1. Clicking on your profile image at the top right.
2. Selecting "author dashboard".
3. Click the "Author Widgets" heading on the right.

Let me know if you have any further questions about this!

Hi Jaclyn,

Thanks for your reply. I've been looking through those widgets but couldn't quite see the one I wanted.....this is what I'm referring to, in Veronica Roth's blog.....

The full cover with the 'want to read' box underneath......how do they do that?

Jaclyn (jaclyn_w) | 417 comments Thanks for the link, Danielle. That's Goodreads' official blog, which is able to contain more complex features than author blogs. I'm sorry about that!

Danielle Girl (daniellekgirl) | 3 comments Ahhh okay! At least I know I'm not going crazy now, and just wasn't able to get it to work :)

Cheers
