User reviews
This is great! It's so stupid that Goodreads doesn't automatically have this feature. One thing: Do you think you could update this extension so that we can see the similarity ratings on book reviews as well? So far it only seems to work for lists of reviewers, which is great and all, but what I'd really like is for me to be able to see if my tastes are similar enough to a review's reviewer that I know I can trust their opinions on a book when I'm scrolling down to casually see the top reviews for a book.

Found this by wandering around the discussions trying to figure out why there's no way to search out people to follow whose tastes are similar. Like many other sensible ideas, it doesn't exist on Goodreads. (whyyyyy???) In the meantime, this is absolutely brilliant and at least gives you an idea, while scrolling through reviews, whether you might want to spend some time trolling that stranger's other reviews for other potential good reading material!
