5. I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I would enjoy reading your reviews.

I drop into GoodReads from time to time, I mainly enjoy reading reading reviews of books I've already read - I'm always curious to see if anyone else shares my take on a particular book. It's fascinating to me to read all the different reactions.

I actually signed up at GoodReads many months ago so I could I write a review of a book I particularly liked, but after a few weeks of checking in to see if anyone else had posted anything on that book - no one had - I stopped checking, and now I can't remember my log-in.

Anyway, I can't imagine that anyone here would object to your posting your reviews. I think it would be a plus for this group.
