So you would add the book to Calibre, use Extract ISBN to grab the ISBN value, and then download metadata/link to goodreads.
If you don't have the ISBN, then the search results it displays are very limited in the information Goodreads gives back to me unfortunately. So in that case click the Search Goodreads.com button, and expand the "xxx Editions" link for the book it finds to see all the variations Goodreads has. Then just drag the link for the particular book back onto the plugin dialog.

Ok I finally figured out my problem here - for Goodreads to grab the Kindle version, I had to replace the ISBN with the ASIN. Any books from the library I changed to the "ebook ISBN" & now life is just peachy
