What
book-related websites are your favorites? Are there any you just discovered?
If it wasn’t for Goodreads, I’d never remember what I’ve read and what books are on my to-read list. When someone comes up to me and says something like, “I can’t remember the title or author, but it was a coming of age story about a teen boy who lived in Oklahoma or Kansas”, I use NoveList Plus, one of Sno-Isle’s databases, and I am able to find the answer almost every single time.

We'd love to know which sites are your favorites!

I confess, I'm addicted to GoodReads. I used to track all my reading in an Excel file and laboriously transfer it to a blog once a month. Now I'm all lazy and just file it in GR. I also love the app...it is great to just scan in barcodes of books I've read, and books I want to read!
Professionally I adore Novelist. It is so wonderful for helping people looking for stuff I have no reading knowledge of. They make some great lists too.
I'm too lazy. To track what I HAVE read, I opted into "maintain a reading history" on my account in the library catalog, and as for what I WANT to read, I created a list in the library catalog under my account called "stuff to read". The cool thing is that I can just put books on hold, then delete it from the list. The catalog software automatically adds it to my reading list once I check it out. The catalog keeps track of it all for me!
