Perhaps I'm hitting a reCaptcha?

Goodreads does do some speed limiting. Doing a lot of queries in a short period of time can get you put on their black list for a while. This is the most likely reason. I have reproduced it here by running two lots of 75 books one after another. The only real solution is to not do as many queries, or maybe add a delay. But, the error message is useless, so I might do some testing to see what it really is.
