Thing 14

LibraryThing was great for adding my personal reading list and finding out what others thought about the books. I found the Kitchen Confidential book and the Lord of the Rings had thousands of comments! This would be great for book clubs and documenting what titles you have in your own personal collection.

In the past, book lists were emailed or posted on a web page. It seems to me that this would make things easy for a book club or a group that visits on their own time. Then you could have a virtual book club, where people read and post thier opinions online. Also, reading the reviews can help people decide on new books to read.
