Thing #11

Library Thing. http://www.librarything.com I created an account and posted book titles I had read and am currently reading. I'm pretty excited about being able to keep up with books electronically that I have read. There's also a wealth of information about the authors and titles of the same genre. I'm in a book club and am hoping that we can use this to foster discussions and for ideas for more titles. It's often hard for me to come up with good books to read, but all of the discussions and recommendations on Library Thing can be really helpful. I have read a lot of books by Philippa Gregory who writes historical fiction. I found different readers who also read a lot of historical fiction novels and am excited to try out some new titles.

  1. I loved LiraryThing, as well. I've listed the books I've read this summer (so far) and have found some interesting titles that are in similar genres. I LOVE your idea about using Library Thing for a book club--not only for recommendations for books, but to also generate discussion. Is it okay if I steal your idea?
