#WritersCoffeeClub 14: Does your work feature on Goodreads? How do you feel about the platform?
It does, and I have an author page too. I had a scare shortly after my book came out as my book (as well as of other self-published authors) was bombarded with fake 1-star reviews. Fortunately, Goodreads removed the "reviews," but this event exposed how weak and outdated the website's system is.
Overall, I like the groups, the friends I met... but it's far from perfect.
