First off, if someone has set their profile so that no one can follow them, then it can’t be done. You would have to “friend” them – and have them accept.
Second, there are several ways to follow someone who allows it.
1. Go to their Profile Page and click on “follow reviews” just to the right of “ add as a friend”. 2. When reading one of their reviews, click on “follow reviews” tab at the bottom. 3. If you are not aware of any books they have read, a quick way to check this out is to
a) Go to their Profile Page. b) Go into their bookshelves. For example, on the screen pictured below, you would go into “Annie the Destroyer *Leather Lust*'s Bookshelves”. c) After reading read the information GoodReads How To… on Shelf-setting: visible columns and click on “review” – to the far right.
Special Note: Once you set your viewing to these visible columns, they will appear this way (until you change them) regardless of who’s bookshelves you view. This came in handy a week or two ago when GR wasn’t delivering e-mail notifications of my friends’ reviews. This way, I could just quickly go in and check my top friends’ bookshelves and see if they had recently posted any.
d) Once you find a book where they have written a review or comment (red arrow, Screen #1), click on “view” (green arrow, Screen #1) and it will hyperlink you to their review. e) Then follow step two above.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any difficulty.
