NovelistPlus

Whew!  Here’s an assignment I know something about – I use the databases all the time.  But NovelistPlus has a new feature that I’m looking at for the first time.  Whereas it used to be limited to fiction, it now has nonfiction titles.  I looked at the “recommended reads” link on the left and there are interesting categories which are a great starting place for someone looking for something to read, but not having a specific idea.  Examples: biography & memoir, arts& entertainment, business writing.  I noticed that the fiction categories are also there – mystery, romance, fiction a-z, etc.  If your interest is more specific, Novelist can do that too.

I typed in “quilting” and got 122 titles, both fiction and nonfiction.  Cool!  Now, if I can just find time to READ all these great suggested books… I find that having a job interferes with my hobbies.  But then again the grocery store clerk probably wants money instead of a nice book synopsis…
