Okay, this is another one of those occasions where I admit I am late to a bandwagon, but I don’t even CARE because I’m so excited about the newest site I joined. Like facebook, twitter, Pinterest, and Tumblr before, I’m finding myself addicted to a fantastic website.

Goodreads.

I had actually been using pinterest and my local library’s website, along with my hundreds of little notebooks I keep all over the house and my bags (heard of a cat lady? I’m a crazy notebook lady) to keep track of books I wanted to read, authors I liked, books I had read and wanted to recommend, and more.

I had actually already heard of goodreads, as I had seen their blurbs on facebook from friends’ profiles. When I FINALLY logged on last week to see what all the fuss was about, I was not let down.

Why? This site lets you track books you’re reading, books you want to read, and books you’ve already read. As if that weren’t enough, if you rate books 1-5 stars or give them a review, they will recommend similar books for you to check out (similar to itunes’ “genius” feature.)

But the best part of the whole website? I no longer have to type keywords or do last, first with authors- the search engine just GETS IT. Worth every penny. Oh wait, goodreads is free.

So go sign up! I don’t work for them, but if they want to give me a job I wouldn’t say no…

And what about Munch Madness, you ask? What is the fate of the Sugarbowl? Well, last night I was in such a holiday valentine spirit that I threw a wildcard vote into the mix. There was love for all five choices, but in the end candy corn pulled into the lead. What does that mean? Well, that at some point I’ll throw candy corn into a special (maybe weekend) match to get a shot at the title and the GLORY.

Tonight, though, we go back to the original sweet 16 (or 32). Back to the wrong side of the tracks (for me, chocolate is fine, but sugar will win my heart any day).

Okay all you chocoholics:

Kit Kat vs. Twix

Vote away! Are you guys on Goodreads? What are you reading these days?
