I almost without exception believe everything I read on SDMB. Especially book recommendations. Because of the support of A Suitable Boy, I have gotten it for Christmas.

I am an avid reader, I have well over 1k books and am trying to get them entered into LibraryThing. I have many very old books that predate UPC, ISBN and Library of Congress, I've gotten most of them in and suprisingly found either the exact edition or a very similar one in the databases. I do have about 5 I have to hand enter (out of 200 so far, not too shabby)

I bought a cue cat years ago and of course, can't find it now, but that will be more helpful once I get to the UPC books.

Librarything doesn't seem to do too well with "books you wanna read" quite yet, but I figure that is probably going to be implemented soon. I like having an easy way to look for books that folks like you suggest.

Anyway, welcome to the group.

Hey! At SDMB I am Sassy - just to be clear you don't have interlopers. I have a tag here for wish list, which I use for things I want to read but have not yet acquired. Right now I have about a third of my books cataloged and am chipping away at the rest.

I'm up over 400 by now, not much time for reading while I'm getting all these dusty buggers entered.

I ordered a buncha books from bn.com resellers, of course, the book I want to read Trinity last came first.

I just finished Altered Carbon last night and started The Drowning Man which I will drop the instant A Suitable Boy gets here.
