Website of the Week February 15, 2012

 When I finish reading a book that I enjoyed I sometimes want to find another like it. While reading a popular blog that contains book reviews, I was introduced to a website called “your next read.” It is fun to type in a title of a favorite book and to discover others of the same genre or style. The site can be found at http://www.yournextread.com.
