It's no secret that I'm not a huge fan of Amazon for book sales, so this is shocking news - thought I'd share it here for those of you promoting your work on Goodreads.
Hi - Jonathan here
To my shock, I've just seen that Amazon is buying book-review
site 'Goodreads' with its 16 million members.
But when I consider that Amazon dominates book sales online,
and Goodreads members have written over 23 million book reviews,
I can see that the marriage was almost inevitable.
This may have a substantial impact on your book sales,
although the reason why is hidden.
I've revealed all in my latest blog post.
