To edit attributes associated with adults in your household, tap the Quick Actions icon on the toolbar,

the individual to:
• Manage Family Library
• Manage Share All Books
• Select devices that show shared content
• Manage payment methods
• Remove that individual from the household on all devices
Note that leaving a household will result in both adults not being allowed to join or start a household
for 180 days, and the household cannot have another adult added for 180 days. Your digital
content and payment methods will no longer be shared with the other adult in the household. You
will also no longer be able to administer child accounts that are part of the household. You can
manage individual books for sharing on the Manage Your Content and Devices page, accessible from
Goodreads on Kindle
Connect to the world's largest community of readers with Goodreads on Kindle, where you can find
personalised book recommendations, keep track of what you've read and want to read, and see
what your friends are reading. Tap the Goodreads icon
on the toolbar to get started. You
will be prompted to sign into Goodreads or create a new account if you did not do so when setting
up your Kindle.
When you create a new account, you will have the opportunity to add Facebook friends. If you
connect using your Facebook account, any Facebook friends who are also on Goodreads will be
automatically added to your Goodreads friend list. The more friends and readers you follow, the
more book recommendations you will see in your Updates.
