The cause of the erratic behavior is the same problem the Goodreads metadata plugin had - the Goodreads website not returning consistent html results unless using a Chrome based user agent. I am making the same change to this plugin as I made to the other one to force it to choose a random Chrome agent rather than the default calibre behaviour of a wider pool of types of web browser user agents.

From my quick attempt at a download of page count this solved the issue. Release coming soon.
