How to use Goodreads...

[Greta]

HI!! I looked for how to know who had read a certain book, but I didnt find it in "Help" (I speak in spanish. perhaps I didnt found it).
For example, I want to know who is reading o who read "Encuentros" a book from Gabriel Rolon. How can I find out
Thanks!
Greta

The book is not coming up in search, which is why you're having trouble. Are you sure you spelled the author's name correctly?

[Lobstergirl]

Oh, I see. His name needs an accent and is unfindable without it. (Goodreads search sucks bad.)

Here is the book
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

and here are the people currently reading it
https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/users...

which Goodreads hides from you behind the "see top shelves" link on the book's page.

Is this it? (Found searching for "Encuentros / Gabriel Rolón" without the quotes)

Encuentros by Gabriel Rolón (all editions can be seen at https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio... )

What Google translates says is Spanish translation of the above / Lo que Google traduce dice es la traducción española de los anteriores :

¿Es esto? (Que se encuentra en busca de "Encuentros / Gabriel Rolón" sin las comillas)

Encuentros por Gabriel Rolón (todas las ediciones se pueden ver en https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...)

FIrst of all, thanks everybody!! That book was an example.. My question is how can I do, to know who is currently reading any book, Or who had read it.-

On the book's page, just click on "See top shelves" (right column, top section (Genre) normally). You will see all those that shelved the books, including for example the "currently reading" shelve.

Currently reading that book are https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/users...

Sadly, some books are no longer allowed to show shelf or genre names; but what Melaslithos says works for the ones that still do.
