Some Random Books From My Library Thing

About a month ago, I introduced the middle school students to the website librarything.com. It is a site which does many things, all of them connected to books and reading. It connects readers in a variety of ways, one way being that it creates places for people to talk about shared reading interests, like science fiction or thrillers, for example. The main function of the site is to give you an opportunity to catalogue books in your own personal library--the books you've read during your life. As you construct this list, you are connected to other users who have also read those books. You're also able to read their reviews of books and see what other books you might enjoy if you liked a certain mystery or a specific author, for example.

Anywho, here's a bit from my librarything catalogue. Check it out, and join up too! It's free. You can also click on 'my library' to see my entire collection (so far).
