Sites for Book Lovers

Here are a couple of helpful and fun websites for those who are serious about their reading.  Staff at the Van Buren Public Library make regular use of these sites and we encourage you to take a look!

Good Reads - This site allows users to build their own "catalogs."  Put together your own "shelves" of what you have read, what you are currently reading, and what you are planning to read.  You can also join discussion groups, start a book club, and post and read reviews.  Users can also search for new books and get recommendations for new ones to try.

Fantastic Fiction - This site has bibliographies for over 30,000 authors where you can find out more information about authors, their backgrounds, and complete list of all their works.  There is also information on over 350,000 books. Throughout the site, just click on a book to see its cover picture, description and publication details.  You can also find information on different series' of books by authors and make sure that you read all the books in a series in the right order!
