Looking for something new to read? Lots of great services suggest books to you either based on your interests or the interests of a big community of readers. This week, we want to know which services you use to track the books you enjoy and find out about great new ones to try.
Whether it's an online book club, a site that has great deals on books, or a service you use to track books and get book suggestions based on the ones you have on your virtual "shelf," we want to know which sites deliver the best book recommendations. Summer reading season is here, and we're all looking for something great to read—help us find it!
The call for contenders is closed! To see which of your nominees earned enough support to make it to the top five, head over to our hive five feature—the five best book recommendation services! Don't forget to cast your vote for the all-out winner!
Let's hear your vote in the discussions below! To cast your vote, follow these guidelines:
Follow this format for your vote, including the bold print. If you don't, it won't be counted:
A LOGO OR SCREENSHOT OF THE BEST BOOK RECOMMENDATION SERVICE
Vote: [BEST BOOK RECOMMENDATION SERVICE]
Why: Why is this service the one you think is the best? Maybe its the one you use, or the one that has the biggest library. Maybe it has a huge community of readers. Make your case! Try to keep it to a single paragraph, maybe two.
Don't duplicate nominations! Instead, if someone's nominated your pick, star (recommend) it to give it a boost, and reply with your story instead.
Please don't leave non-entry, direct comments on this post. They'll just get pushed down. Save your stories for others' submissions!
If you're not sure what we mean, just check out the nominations by our writers below. We'll give you a head start, and they should all be in the proper format, so you can just follow our lead.
