make an online catalogue of the books you own and share them with other if you'd like


Here's my catalogue if you want to check out what I have put up so far: http://www.librarything.com/catalog/ApolloniaVitelli


I can't believe I haven't run into more sites like this before!
Enjoy!

OOOOOOOOOOOH!
this is going to take me forever, but I love this kind of thing. I've been keeping a catalog of mine in a notebook cause I'm just that dorky.

most of my books are old first editions so it's hard to find them. here is the beginning of my list anyway:
http://www.librarything.com/catalog.php?view=skyehigh

you can print out the printable version from the site now instead of writing it down!

PS: Nice collection! Where do you get your books from usually? Just all over?
I get mine as cheap as possible hehe

Hey I see you have A CERTAIN AGE BY R.RAY on there... is it like LOLITA?? I love Lolita! I clicked on a certain age and on amazon there is no synopsis... can you tell me what it's like??

no... just put up your catologues link on here and share (as in let us see what books you got)

it's quite interesting!

haha I'm not even halfway done. I have far too many. my library used to have book sales, really cheap books, and lots of good titles, so I'd buy them in bulk there. (now they give them all to prisons )

plus when I go to florida they have tons of thrift stores with cheap books so I'll buy in bulk there.

I've just been collecting for a really long time. 500 plus now. nerd alert!

thanks for posting. i started one but it'll probably take me a while to catalog everything i have.

Ahhh, another LJ Smith fan! Now I don't have to feel as embarrassed about adding all of the LJS books I own to my catalogue, haha.

My list is small and kind of bare in comparison to everyone else's lists but here it is anyway - it's not complete yet:

Slightly like it I suppose, as in the story involves an underage girl getting involved with a much older man. But it's writing isn't similar at all, its very much written in the language of a 14 year old kid. I found a brief description on Amazon.co.uk for ya. I definitely reccommend it.


Amazon.co.uk Review
Teenager Rebbecca Ray's debut novel paints a deeply disturbing portrait of the life of an adolescent girl growing up in small-town England in the dying breaths of the 20th century. The humiliations of her first day at secondary school soon give way to grudging acceptance as Ray's unnamed heroine learns how to "fit in". Letting boys touch her and hanging out with the misfits and trouble-makers makes daily life bearable. Which is just as well as home life is far from bearable. With a brow-beaten, ineffectual mother, whose own feelings of self-worth have long since been ground to a pulp by a bullying, overbearing husband, it comes as no surprise when their 14-year-old daughter starts dating a man old enough to be her father. Sex, drugs, paedophilia and masochism are all shrugged off by our 14-year-old leading lady whose feelings of self-loathing grow deeper, page by gripping page, until they reach a disturbing, inevitable conclusion. Written in the first person, Ray's narrative is stark and shocking. She describes a life, a family, a society too darkly accurate to be pure fiction. As a novelist, Rebbecca Ray has found a suitable channel for her emotions. Today's teenagers, meanwhile, need help. --Carey Green

Sorry, I own several thousand books.

Lol I love her books. I had to put them on the list they were such a part of my teenage years. I was a massive fan, read any of her books I could get my hands on...then she just stopped writing. I think the final part of the Night World series is going to be published soon. I wonder what way she's going to end it. Apparently they're re-releasing the old Night World books edited so that the final battle can take place sometime 'around' the turn of the millenium rather than on it.

This site looks like fun times. My list will take a while since I have over 100 books, but I'm looking forward to beginning my list whenever I get the chance.

i've started, but most of the books i've read, i haven't actually bought.
