Novelist Plus
This “readers’ advisory” database has something for everyone. Adults, teens and children will be able to identify books based on titles, authors and topics they have read and enjoyed. It also provides full-text reviews and annotations for over 20,000 titles.

Library Reads!
Features the top ten books published this month that librarians across the country love.

Literature Map
Literature Map is not only helpful, but it is a ton of fun to play with! Type in an author’s name and the site will generate a web of other authors that have similar writing styles and genres. The closer the author’s name is to another, the more alike the authors are! This can be a great tool to use when you need help in finding a new author to follow, or to help find authors that write books that are similar to ones you’ve read and loved!

Genre Blender
Select two or three genres then click Blend!
