The thing that goodreads has that will be hard to replicate is the Kindle integration.

This is the Achilles heel of any potential competitor. The lazy integration means there is a big subset of users who simply won't engage with a competitor because it requires more work. Couple that with the social graph Goodreads already has and you're looking at a huge moat.
