They've been around for about a year (I think). A bit easier to organize and search for your fav books. And of course you can integrate your book list to your blog. They may even have a Facebook widget but I'm not sure. It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on Shelfari. They’ve been around for about a year (I think).

Haha Carolyn, maybe not, but you might worry about drinking alone at your house! Melany-- Thanks for your comments (and sharing this in the first place!) I'll check out Shelfari and see how it compares to this one. (Maybe there's a follow up coming?) “you don’t have to worry about drinking and driving home after sharing your thoughts with fellow book readers..”

The only thing about the community I find "faulty" is that I can't select my top 10 books from my list of fav books. I have to manually search (again) for the books to enter them. But beyond that - the community is fun.

Of course, a second key priority is wine - red, white, so many decisions! Oh and there's the snacks too! But I digress... This online community of booklovers (ya that is odd spelling) is very much the virtual equivalent, don't you think. Instead of meeting at Nancy's house, you meet online! Best part - you don't have to worry about drinking and driving home after sharing your thoughts with fellow book readers... I agree with Kelly, this could be hot!
