Instead of ‘neighbor’ … won’t you be my ‘reader’?
You gotta read the title of this post with the theme song to Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood playing in your head. Of course if it wasn’t before, it is now. Sorry! 🙂
Now, what do I mean ‘reader’?
Well, there are a bunch (and when I say bunch, I mean, BUNCH) of reader sites ‘out there’ in the vast space of the Internet. These are sites dedicated to sharing about what you’re reading, with others, your friends, making recommendations, getting recommendations, etc. 🙂 I love finding good reads, myself!
I have spent considerable time getting myself setup onto them and hope if you use one of them, you’ll be my friend AND find some great reads (from others as well as me).
Then, once Little White Lies comes out, you might be so inclined to do a (::nice::) review for me. 🙂 ::batseyelashes:: Right?
Even now, the cover may be there (may not be) and your can add it to your bookshelf, recommend it to others (if you happened to be one of my beta readers) or use it as a reminder that its coming! Some of the sites require that the book is published before it will be up, so it might take a little longer. But now that there is something tangible to be shared, I hope you will share it!
Where exactly are all these ‘reader sites’? Here is a list of those I’m participating in. If you’re on one, then …
get ready …
got the song?
“… won’t you be …. my … reader?”
Goodreads
Authors Den
Nothing Binding
Shelfari
Red Room
Library Thing
I know there are tons more, but I only have so much time in my day. 🙂 If you have a great recommendation for a site though, please do share! I don’t want to miss out on the latest and greatest! 🙂
In the meantime, I’m reading Green Eyed Demon by Jaye Wells, right now. Follow along there with my reads … and I hope you find some good ones of your own!
My head is hurting too much today to recall exactly which of those I’m deffo on, but I *know* I’m on Goodreads (because I’ve been on there today), and Shelfari, as well as Author’ Den & Nothing Binding. Thanks for the reminder to check the others out 🙂
Enh … no need to recall. There are sooooooo many of them out there, I’m trying to streamline the ones I DO participate in and might have to scale that list above back to just 2-3! 🙂 But man, if there is a better one, i wanna know! 🙂
There are so many resources out there. I know about some of the ones you listed, but I think I just scratched the surface. Wow.
Hi Amelia! 🙂 There are tons. It’s crazy! I want to find the places that more of my reader base is on … ‘cuz they are the ones I want to interact with. So i wonder if these are the biggies (and I think Selfari and Goodreads are ‘the biggies’). 🙂
It’s the first time I’ve heard of most of those sites, but I did find Little White Lies on Goodreads. 🙂
I’m falling in love with Goodreads. 🙂 Took me a while to jump on that bandwagon as a reader, but now I’ve got all sorts of recommendations and books I want to read … and I LOVE to read, so it’s awesome! 🙂 And yeah for finding Little White Lies there! Wheeeeeeeeeee!
Thanks for the great list! Can’t wait for my cover release so I can join in the fun. Wheeee!!!
Wheeeeeeeeee! 🙂 🙂
I can’t believe there are so many sites for sharing reading lists and swapping recommendations. Can’t wait to read Little White Lies. Once I register on Goodreads, I will most definitely recommend it. I already know it’s going to be fantastic 🙂
There are TONS! It’s amazing. And yeah for reading Little White Lies!! 🙂 🙂 Its up on Goodreads. 🙂 hehehehehehe
