What would you change/add?
One thing I don't like is that once you've linked Goodreads, you MUST share with GR even if you just want to share on FB or Twitter. I'd like 3 checkboxes so you can select whatever combo you want.
The other thing (and this is just a general complaint about scrolling views, web browsing, etc. on the Paperwhite) is that it forces you to swipe to advance the scroll, with no way to jump to the end or in between. It can get rather tiring. The web browser is particularly bad as it takes a very exaggerated swipe to simulate page up/down.
For example (since we're talking about GRI), the Add Amazon Books list is particularly long and therefore pretty useless for adding books that are near at the top of the list, with no way to search or sort it. There's a thing that looks like a scroll bar, but you cannot interact with it directly to move to a different position in the list.
I'd sacrifice a little screen real estate for navigation buttons, or maybe add some tap zones for better navigation.
The only exception to this I've found are the Kindle Store listings, which do respond to touch on the scroll bar to page up/down (really got to wedge your finger on the edge).

Two very important things. 1. The use of my own personal shelves instead of just the three standard shelves. 2. The ability to update reading status.
