I enjoy using LibraryThing. I think nothing reveals more about ones personality than knowing what type of books they tend to enjoy reading. I use LibraryThing as a tribute to David Gemmell. An absolute master storyteller in the fantasy genre. I know a couple of men who swear by reading Gemmell's books alone they have become better people through the morals and characters they connected with in Gemmells' writing.Although "critics labelled his work "macho" and would often cite his limited vocabulary and the repetitive nature of his stories. Violent events usually provide the sole impetus for plot development, and are resolved by physical violence or heroics"

I found Gemmells characters had 'soul' dealing with alot of grey areas the reader could relate to. If you enjoy fantasy give DG a go:
