<p>I&#8217;ve tried practically EVERY available social site for readers and nothing compares to <a href="http://www.goodreads.com" target="_blank" title="GoodReads">GoodReads</a> and its featureset, active user community, site speed and layout.  (Best-of-the-rest include: <a href="http://www.shelfari.com" target="_blank">Shelfari</a> &amp; <a href="http://www.LibraryThing.com" target="_blank">LibraryThing</a>).  As <a href="http://mashable.com/2008/01/20/goodreads-social-networking-site-well-on-its-way-to-1m-users/" target="_blank" title="GoodReads Social Networking Site Well On Its Way To 1M Users">Mashable</a> points out,  in just a few months, &#8220;GoodReads&#8230; has reached past 10 million book reviews and now has 700,000+ members, with the 1m benchmark on the horizon.  And being named one of <a href="http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/top10/article/0,30583,1686204_1686305_1691167,00.html" target="_blank"><em>Time</em> magazine’s top 10 sites of 2007</a> certainly added a nice feather to their cap.&#8221;  It&#8217;s good to see that the GoodReads community is growing and getting great publicity.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll see the books I&#8217;m currently reading listed on the sidebar of this site.  Feel free to take a look at my complete <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/655494" target="_blank" title="My Reading List on GoodReads">Reading List</a> on GoodReads and drop me a line about any book I&#8217;ve read or should be reading.</p>
