Book tracking sites?
Advisors! Wise ones!
K. and M. and I were talking about getting back in to book-tracking, and I know just recently I saw some conversation here about the better apps for that.
(NB I need a better tracker for my DW-reading-list reading.)
I know some folks track on DW or in a spreadsheet -- I do that myself, loosely -- but as a group we'd like something a bit more sociable. (They're not active on DW.)
Do you have any suggestions for non-Goodreads apps? Notes from use?
I think what we are mainly looking for is simple -- a way to track reading and share thoughts about it with one another. I'm not looking for any broader functionality and I am particularly not looking for a site that wants me to engage with it like a social media site. That is, I understand that no site is perfect, and all stars must run on some fuel, but these features are uninteresting or anathema to me:

- Promoting things
- Having things promoted to me
- Being invited to sign up for newsletters
- Getting alerts about anything ever
- The risk of interacting with actual authors
