Brenda asked Mehmet Yildiz:

Hi Dr. Yildiz, I am a writer with Illumination-Curated, and in one of your emails, you suggested that we could be "friends" here. I'm not sure I have done this correctly. If I am following you, are we friends?

Mehmet Yildiz Hi Brenda, there is a feature here which is called invite as a friend. Following is not necessarily mean to be a friend in Goodreads vernacular. I sent you a friend request.
