It’s an on-line, free book-club that allows you to create a virtual shelf that you can then share with others. You can include books you’ve already read (with comments or reviews) as well as those you are interested in reading.
I know that other book sites have a similar approach but I liked the visual aspect of Shelfari – imagine having enough shelf space to hold all your books.Neil Gaiman doesn’t have to imagine anything. His personal library looks like a used bookstore – the kind where you can sit in a comfy chair with a cup of tea and read all afternoon without being bothered.
See the Shelfari blog for more photos by Kyle Cassidy.I seriously don’t know how Mr. Gaiman ever leaves his house.

FINALLY I'M IN!!! Thanks for the info, I now know what I'm doing!
When I see this man's library I have to laugh at my two bookshelves in the office and one hidden in the closet as the sum of "my library!"
If I had space like that, I wouldn't have had to donate so many books to various organizations, not to mention having to pack Allistair MacLean in a box and relegate him to the basement to make room on my shelves for current favorite authors - only the VERY favorite get space - and I'm soon running out!
Going to use "Anonymous" so I'll let you know this is Mom! Love you!
