As a college student struggling to juggle classwork, social life, etc. I'm not sure whether I should invest the time in making the move to BookLikes. Opinions, Goodreads friends?

If you're that busy, then don't bother. I've heard that it isn't as good as Goodreads anyways. I'm staying, although my opinion isn't as valuable as I've been away whilst all this stuff has been going on (I've only found out what has happened recently)

I'm unemployed (again), so I have lots of time to play around both sites. So far, I'm finding Booklikes much more difficult. I have no plans to leave Goodreads and just want to explore alternatives right now.
I would say not to bother too, as someone who has made the move I just can't see booklikes taking off. It's just not as good as goodreads, and doesn't have the same amount of options. Plus, no matter what their policy now says, I've always liked the community feel that the goodreads members have.
Hm okay, thank you all for your thoughts! I haven't been on Goodreads as much as I've wanted to be lately, but the idea of giving up the great community as well as the friends I've made does pain me. I guess I'll stay here for now and wait to see if BookLikes happens (or if it becomes the new "fetch").
