I joined an online book community called Shelfari. With Shelfari, you can keep track of books you’ve read, books you’re reading, books you want to read, and your favorite books. You can also create groups of people interested in the same book, recommend books to others, rate books, and post and read book reviews. It’s pretty neat!

Shelfari’s in beta right now, so there are a few things I don’t like about it. For example, I can’t change a book’s title. The title comes strictly from Amazon and sometimes they have books titled strangely. I also can’t import an image for the cover. Again, I have to rely on what Amazon has. I also can’t sort the way I want to. I can only sort by author, title, the date I added the book to my shelf, rating, and opinion. I want to sort it by author and then by series. If I weren’t so anal, this probably wouldn’t bother me so much.  The nice thing about the site is that the administrators are listening to the users’ suggestions and implementing changes every day.  And, right now, my biggest problem with Shelfari is I’m spending more time updating my shelves than actually reading. :lol:
