TRASHIONISTA RECOMMENDS: Good Reads

Good Reads is a site in the tradition of Librarything and Shelfari. That is, yet another addictive book-related website for me to spend time on instead of doing anything more productive... sigh. (I warn you: once you log in, it's hard to leave, so join up at your own risk!)

The idea behind the site is simple: join up and then add books you've just read, books you want to read next and books you're reading now. You can add reviews and read other people's, get book suggestions based on what you're reading, and the best bit: add 'friends' in the same way as sites like Myspace and Facebook - you can even form groups, so you could create a virtual reading group online and have book chats over Good Reads.

So many possibilities, so many chores being ignored...
