My impression is that Amazon bought it for whatever reason, and then ignored it. It seems like there&amp;#x27;s so much more potential to a social community around books than what Goodreads offers. The UI also never fails to disappoint. One of the core user features, searching for books, has all sorts of weird quirks. I&amp;#x27;ll use a very specific query that should guarantee a hit, and nothing comes up. Or, the book that I want will come up for a second, and right as I&amp;#x27;m going to select it, the results completely change and the book I want has vanished.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Goodreads offloads DynamoDB tables to S3 and queries them with Athena</title><url>https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/how-goodreads-offloads-amazon-dynamodb-tables-to-amazon-s3-and-queries-them-using-amazon-athena/</url></story>
