Kinda Like Facebook + Love of Books = Shelfari!!


If you like to use social networking tools like myspace and Facebook and you love books, then you might also like Shelfari. Shelfari creates a virtual bookshelf of all the books you've read, are reading, and want to read and allows you to share it with your "friends". Here you can review books, give them a rating, and comment/discuss with other readers.
You can view my Shelfari bookshelf on the right side of this blog. This is a great way to get book reviews and suggestions for titles to read.
There are other bookshelf sites - such as Good Reads - that you may want to check out. Both sites allow you to put a widget on your myspace of facebook page to share your reading list with others.
You can find out more information at www.shelfari.com or www.goodreads.com
If you do get a Shelfari account, be sure to friend Teen Services Marion Public Library - I'd love to hear what you think about the books you read.
