Incorporate reviews using Goodreads API goodreads-py: https://pypi.org/project/Goodreads/ | https://github.com/sefakilic/goodreads goodreads-dotnet: https://github.com/adamkrogh/goodreads-dotnet
Get the reviews for a book given a Goodreads book id
Get an XML or JSON response that contains embed code for the iframe reviews widget. The reviews widget shows an excerpt (first 300 characters) of the most popular reviews of a book for a given internal Goodreads book_id. Reviews of all known editions of the book are included.
XML responses also include shelves and book meta-data (title, author, et cetera). The Goodreads API gives you full access to Goodreads-owned meta-data, but it does not give you full access to book meta-data supplied by third parties such as Ingram. Book cover images, descriptions, and other data from third party sources might be excluded, because we do not have a license to distribute these data via our API.
If you need book meta-data beyond what our API provides, consider signing up for an Amazon developer key. URL: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show.FORMAT (sample url) HTTP method: GET Parameters:
