Library Thing lets you catalog the books that you are reading and write reviews. You can also see what other people are reading and read their reviews as well. It's a nice way to collaborate, and I think it could be really helpful for book clubs. Librarians could also use it by making a page of books they recommend. It'd be really helpful for their students to just go online and read their librarian's book reviews. You can also add your Library Thing books to your blog like I've done. (Scroll down)
In other news, I recently read Crispin: The Cross of Lead for my children's literature class. It's by Avi, and it was pretty good. It's historical fiction, and it's set in medieval times. There's a really intriguing character named Bear that's this jester/priest/troubadour/guru/juggler/spy/revolutionist guy. He's cool. It's not a must-read, but if anything, just keep it in mind for your future children.
