Forums where u can post your own reviews??

[faith]

Does anyone know any forums where u can post your own reviews of books?? I've been looking for an international one for a long time now, but haven't found any. So please tell me if u have some suggestions!

I don't know any sites but, if you would like, you can post your book reviews in this Forum here: http://www.online-literature.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4387

Yeah, I could do that, but that's not what I'm looking for. I want my own "virtual bookcase". I know a Swedish forum where u have this. It means that when someone goes to your profile there is a list of all the books you've added, and by clicking other people can read your reviews/comments on the book. I'm wondering if there are international forums like this, or is this those Swede's unique idea...?

So you're looking for a forum where the members have listed books they've read/possess or are you looking for book reviews forum? Confused a bit :p

[faith]

Im looking for a forum where "normal people" (people like me) have listed books theyve read and reviewed them. If thats clear enough... The point is that I want to post my own reviews, and when people search for book X on the forums, they find my and others reviews of book X.

I understand what you mean about the forum, but 'normal people', what's the deal with that. Now you have raised the question in my head about 'normal people', do you mean not book critics or not authors or just not people who aren't 'normal' ? I'm confused...

[Jay]

I think she meant 'normal people' as in not professionals.

[Helga]

I hope so because normal is a word no-one has ever used to describe me. I think this kind of a forum is a good idea, and faith, if you find it let me know :)

[Jay]

I kind of doubt there'd be a forum wholly dedicated to user book reviews, but good luck with your search :)

[faith]

Yeah, I mean normal people, as in not professionals like Jay says. Normal people as in just anybody...

And Jay, u doubt there's a forum dedicated wholly to user book reviews? Well, there IS several in Swedish. I gues the Swedes are exeptionally clever then, since they have thought of making such forums... ;) These forums are really much fun! U get a lot of readingtips! And these forums aren't only dedicated to reviews. There are also "discussion forums" where u can talk about just anything (related to books).

If u want to see what this kinda forum is like u can check www.boksidan.net but it is in Swedish, so I don't know howe much u will understand.

And here's a link to my profile at an other such forum. The reviews of the books I have read in English are actually in English:

But okay, this is just if u want to see howe it works...

Hello faith

Bookcrossing.com/ has forums, as well as a decent area for members where you can post reviews in your own profile's `bookcase' section, and it is not mandatory that you `release' the books. Amazon.com as well.

Oh thanx Logos!!! I'll immediatly check bookcrossing!!!!!!!!!! Thanx!!!!!!!! Amazon I've already tried, but it was a bit confusing...
