I chose Science Fiction for my genre link to keep up with. I was torn between that and mystery because neither are genres I normally read. Sci-fi won out because it has so many sub-genres I'm interested in learning about. Learning these and general sci-fi titles will help me help patrons find books they might not otherwise. There's a lot of crossover and someone who typically likes romance or mysteries may find their next favorite read on shelves otherwise foreign to them. I look forward to surprising customers and getting them to try something new. Also, sci-fi seems to be forever growing in popularity. I decided to go with http://www.sfsite.com/
The recommended book links were all tempting choices and I plan to scan them during slow desk times. The trouble is they add so many title to my "to read" list! I chose to go with GoodReads because it's so interactive and popular. I already have an account with them but am interested in utilizing the site more and taking full advantage. Now I can create an actual (well, digital) to-read list!
