Sharing quotes in Goodreads / Facebook for sideloaded books

[hopla]

Hi guys,

desperate for help here. Is there a way to share some quotations from my sideloaded books to Goodreads or Facebook. As far as I know Facebook is not possible any more, but GoodReads could be possible, however I cannot understand how to do it.

I already looked at this:

but it doesnt work for me. Is there anybody who could give me an advice?

Thanks,
Victor

P.S.: i didnt seem to find any recent relevant posts here on this topic. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Goodreads use to update to Facebook as a feature but that hasn't been possible for years with algorithm changes.

You can turn on the option to share your Kindle highlights on Goodreads under your profile settings.

Click on your avatar in the toolbar, then Kindle Notes & Highlights.

From a book on the list, doesn't matter which one, click "View your notes and highlights (none posted)"

Once on the book's notes and highlights page, click on Make all visible under the page header to show them all, or, click on Hide all to remove them from other members’ view. You can also make individual notes or highlights visible by toggling the Visible slider button found next to the item in question, to the On position.

Yes, it's complicated and they should make it easier.

You may have missed a step with calibre, the so-called ‘ASIN hack’ which causes the sideloaded book to masquerade as a book purchased from Amazon, including ability to share to social media. I’ve never used it myself but I have not seen any reports that it has stopped working.
