Hi, I think I am having an "old" issue that seemed to have been addressed by "goodreads" way back when.
Not sure if it is something that is happening yet again or something different When I "add to shelf" I am getting an error "The request contacting Goodreads has Failed. Please try again" I figured I would throw it out there and see if someone might know something about this.
calibre, version 1.21.0
ERROR: Goodreads Failure: The request contacting Goodreads has failed. Please try again.

This is isolated to a few books not all books.
1. Some add to shelves just fine, and and others do not.
2. Select for example 10 books and try to add them to a shelf and if "one" of these books gives this error ALL the books do not get uploaded to the goodreads website. It will tag it in the calibre column with the appropriate shelf name with the except of the "error book"
3. Singly add the the book that causes the error and it still causes the error does not get tagged with the shelf name in calibre and does not get added to the goodreads website shelf.
4. Singly add one book it will add to shelf just fine, both in calibre and on the goodreads shelf
5. Singly add one book it will add to shelf in Calibre "or at least tag it in the calibre column with the shelf name" but does not add it to the goodreads shelf on the website.
Thanks Crissman
edit: Just tried to create a new shelf via the goodreads plugin in calibre and receive the same kind of error
