Psychic? I think so.

Okay! Just found something really cool (THANK YOU, STUMBLE). So I'm really having trouble finding new books to read. You know how you read this really awesome book and you want to read something just like it thats as good but there's really no such thing unless there is a sequel (of course, with my luck, the writer drops off the map and there never is a sequel or its not set up to be a recurring series). Anyway, I'm struggling when all of a sudden StumbleUpon.com has done it again. I find this website called The Book Seer www.bookseer.com. It comes up with this picture of a gentleman with a word bubble above his head. All you have to do is type in the name of book you recently read/loved/obsessed over (maybe its twilight, maybe its Homer's the Odyssey. Whatever your preference, he will not judge) and the name of the author in the supplied blanks. Press enter and VOILA! recommendations based on your chosen book appear, thanks to Amazon.com and LibraryThing. MAGIC! and great for Etymology students struggling to keep up with the 100/150 page requirements each week. The Book Seer (a.k.a the website that will save your Ety grade) You can thank me later ;)
