Goodreads.com

Hey guys, many of you have asked me for book recommendations. It's hard to know what you like so I highly recommend you sign up for this website. It's called goodreads.com. Here's my invitation:  https://www.goodreads.com/friend/i?i=LTM2MjM0MDAxMzU6NDE5

Let me persuade you why:
1. If you enter some of the books you've liked that you've already read, it will recommend books for you. The more you enter, the more the website can filter for you and create recommendations.
2. If you have friends connected on here (or you sign up through your facebook account) it will connect what others are reading and you can see if you have similar interests. This site is like a reading social network.
3. I love the feature of "I want to read this" because I hardly have time to read anymore. When you search for a book, you can click "I want to read it" and it will create a list for you to refer back to. I have a long list based on books my students have said were awesome.

I have additional reasons, but that's it for now. Go check it out!
