    no, good reads don't get posted there's literally 100's each day and the winner is picked from yes randomness sometimes but also whether they have written reviews and site activity :)

    They're listed in the daily thread (or weekly. I can't remember). There are so many Goodreads comps so they're not individually listed. :)

    One of the criteria Goodreads use to select winners is site activity, so you need to do stuff on the site not just enter the comps

    Is that actual reviews? Or can it be following authors and creating "to read" lists.

    I'm a massive book person, so this website is great for me - with or without wins! ;)

    Same here - great website but great giveaways too. I won quite a lot on there having only posted one or two reviews, so think you'd be fine without :)

    I've won a few times and I rarely write out a review so maybe it just means rating books by the star system. Good luck OP x

    May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx
