I've had more fun with LibraryThing than with any other tool or site we've looked at in this course. I'll have to edit some of my entries, since my copies are usually earlier editions or earlier printings, or have better covers. I still have a lot of fun to go navigating around the site.
One of my favorite books got a bad review, alas. It's not the best book ever written, but it was written by a former colleague, and the descriptions of the Harvard Business School campus, Peabody Terrace, and Dorchester Lower Mills transported me back fifteen years. All the books in my library right now are ones I acquired from 1954 to 2004!
My books ranged in popularity from 1900 (Raymond Chandler) to 199,000 (Jeff Cruikshank)!
