I posted five books on LibraryThing, then checked how many other people had listed those books. As I expected, popular fiction like Wicked had a lot more than obscure science fiction like The Mind Parasites. I checked out the Robert Jordan groups, and as I expected, most of the conversation was about the final book (when and if it will be published due to Jordan's life-threatening illness). LibraryThing would be a great way to recommend readings to my students since parents often ask me to recommend books about other cultures. I could also see what other educators are saying about these books. Nice website and a great tool!
