It works but it puts an unnecessary extra step— instead of immediately taking you to the site, it opens a sub-menu, asking you if like to 'Search goodreads Now,' or 'Search goodreads Later.' What's the purpose of this? Choosing 'Later' does not save your highlighted book for later. Better choose "Now" and check your browser's history later if you don't have the time to read the article and reviews. Imagine if this add-on is like Google's "Search Google for..." One click and you're there. But instead, it's inconvenient. 2 stars.

Is Goodreads Easy Search Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Goodreads Easy Search requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
