Stop, You're Killing Me isn't a social networking site, but it's one of the coolest cross-referenced mystery book sites I've encountered.

Stop, You’re Killing Me! is a resource for lovers of mystery, crime, thriller, spy, and suspense books. We list over 2,500 authors, with chronological lists of their books (nearly 29,000 titles), both series (2,900+) and non-series.
|
Books are also listed by location, job/profession (of the main character), historical (time period), diversity, and genre. I wish there was a search option to allow a search for all the criteria at once, but I've stumbled across several very good reads while browsing the lists. The read-alike lists are broken down by author and category. Most of the listings include links to Amazon.com where you can read the plot synopsis and reviews.
There's even a little ebook component to this site. Sign up for the newsletter. It regularly includes a list of ebooks recently released in Kindle format.
