Book tracking sites?

[radiantfracture]

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

I can do all of that elsenet.
