library thang

Galley Cat just clued us in to this ultra-cool site called LibraryThing. Burgerites, you must check it out. It's like a bookworm orgy over there! Reading junkies, librarians, and other bookpeople basically dish on what they own, and exchange notes with people whose libraries suggest a perfect meeting of the minds. You can spy on who's read what and what they're saying about it. Meg Cabot, for example, gets an average rating of 3.76 out of 5 stars for her combined works, while Rachel Cohn (our next burger interviewee) gets a 4.03.

Ikeacart Also, if you ever felt like you have too many books, Meatballyou'll be comforted when you see the size of some of these people's collections. The number of trips they must make to Ikea for shelving...that's a heckuva alot of swedish meatballs.

Ooh how cool I am WAY ahead of the curve on this one! I like to use it to mark all the books I want *TO READ* as well.

Very very very cool service!

Let me know if you have a page, I love seeing what other people are reading!

You are SO cutting edge, Jennifer...we worship you! And your taste in books--how fabulously eclectic! I'm still working on my profile...it might take a year or two...or three.

And what is your username?
