## Goodreads Reviews in South Africa

### ***** "Reading Journey"
I never stat a new book without searching it on the app and reading the review and ratings. I follow readers that have the same intrest as me and that make it fun to see what they read and enjoy.  The app keeps me consistent on my reading goals. I set a new goal every year and love exceeding the target.
-- Mdevill, 2024-12-30

### *---- "Add a dislike button"
Please just add one
-- hhbfgbvhgf, 2024-10-29

### *---- "Restore review"
Accidentally deleted a book because Goodreads had marked it as 2x reading session. I tried to delete the one session but it ended up deleting the whole book. 

Not so much angry at the book deleted but can I have my reviews back please. How do I restore everything I said about the book???
-- Moghel, 2024-10-27

### ***** "Art of hearing a heartbeat"
Beautiful writing!!
-- Renate 88888888, 2024-09-12

### ***** "Great app!"
A feature I enjoy most is being able to update my progress 😍😍
-- 👌🏾🥰, 2024-07-19

### ****- "I love this app!"
Really great app for any avid reader.
-- Nomsa02, 2024-07-18

### ***** "Journey"
Goodreads is a great app for tracking one’s reading journey, planning what to read next and for sharing with others. I recommend this app to readers wherever I go and love to see their reading journey too.
-- Floydus100, 2024-06-06

### ****- "Could be better"
While Goodreads is a valuable platform for book lovers, there's room for improvement. The formatting options could be more user-friendly, and the inability to directly upload photos from devices feels like a missed opportunity. I would love to see updates that focus on enhancing the user experience and fostering a more engaging community. is long overdue. I always have to look up what symbols I need to be able to add images, links, etc. I can't see images I've used on the app, I need to log into the desktop version to see images. The app could be more interactive than “like” and “comment”. I can't even like someone’s comment in an ongoing interaction. I've got to comment in order to show I like their comment. Why this hasn't changed confuses me.
