“Brilliant and User-friendly”

With all the slog and juggling entailed by indie publishing, it's great that there's an alternative website for offering your book in hopeful exchange of getting reviews. The site looks great, very professional, plus Library Thing staffers are helpful, patient, and professional. So glad I found them.

“Not user friendly”

The site doesn't allow for the wide variety of books that you might wish to catalog. For instance it doesn't allow for easy cataloging of a multi-volume series. Import function is quirky and inconsistent and cannot be customized (or at least no instructions are given for how to do it). I tried LibraryThing a few years ago and gave up on it after a few hours. Recently had another go and I don't think it's been improved or changed at all. Just not worth the trouble.

ARGH! Maybe it's just me, but I can't seem to find ANYTHING on here, it seems the books are hidden and just don't like me? I dunno, it seems like endless reading of instructions and getting nowhere. I used it for 20 minutes trying to look up paranormal or fantasy books and only got titles with the words "fantasy" or "paranormal" in them. I give up! Back to goodreads.
