I just noticed Most Disturbing Books has 22 Members with a member library of 18,764 books (not including the MostDisturbingBooks profile)- or about 850 books per library.

Those are some pretty large libraries, but under Most commonly shared books (weighted) the statistic is "None."

Not even 1984, the DaVinci Code or the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince!

I think this may account for the variety of answers in the "How do we define what constitutes a "disturbing" book?" thread.

This variety is interesting in and of itself...

That is interesting. I thought there would be some King at least.

So far, I share 18 out of the 221 books with the MostDisturbingBooks library, plus I've read at least another half a dozen more.

I wonder if it just takes a little while for the Most Commonly Shared books to kick in...

>3 kaelirenee: kaelirenee-
You might be right, I share 16 books with you, 2 are shared with MostDisturbingBooks. The same 2 are also shared with cal8769 from message 2.

That's at least two books shared with four members, that should show on the statistic.

Many members, varieties, and definitions, but also many THANKS from me, to people who have volunteered to help with this. I have 2 weeks of classes left, then exam week and then I'm free! For 2 and a half weeks anyway, and then the summer semester starts, lol. Still, I'll have fun fiddling with the catalog during my break. :D
