So while we're on the subject, is there a good book recommendation service? I usually just browse the Kindle store, but the recommendations there are pretty awful. Most of them seem to be NYT best sellers, which usually seems to mean "derivative crud". It seems odd that Amazon's recommendation engine isn't better. Perhaps it works for most people.

Yes! Readerly (readerly.com) delivers on what Goodreads doesn't - it doesn't rely on the 5-star rating system and learns what you like to give you better recommendations. This means it's a social network that improves for users as it grows, it doesn't weaken as Goodreads does.
