I'm a huge fan of Literal! I've been looking for a way to move off of Goodreads for years, mostly because I'm convinced it hasn't been updated since I started using it in 2007. Literal had all the features I want - easy import of my Goodreads books, a great API, and a way to embed what I've recently read on my own website (at one pointed I'd written my own script to do this, but this was far easier). It's also really cool to be able to see who has decided to read a book based on your recommendation.
