The only things I use Goodreads for is (1) to check if a book I stumbled upon is part of a series, and what other books are in that series. And (2), if I like a book or series, I use it to check out what other books/series that author has done. There are a ton of other places besides Goodreads to get this information. Goodreads generally does it as well as, but not better than, other places I have found that present this same information. What I would really like is a place that would reliably tell me when an author I have flagged releases a new book, or future notice of when they plan to release it. I get some of these notifications, sporadically, from Amazon for authors that I watch. But that does not seem to be reliable at all. I don't know if I might have done something incorrectly when I tried to set this up or if Amazon is just, well, sporadic. But I don't get notifications reliably, whatever the cause.
