Goodreads Right Click Extension

Search for books on Goodreads with a right click!

You can now toggle whether your search opens Now or Later via a dropdown on the extension options page. Just click the Extensions icon in the top right of your browser (it looks like a puzzle piece), the click the three dots next to Goodreads Right Click and select Options.

Select the text that you'd like to search (book title, author, ISBN), right click, and choose\"Search Goodreads.\" Your results will show up in a new tab, and you can add the book to one of your lists, create a new review, or get more information about the book.
