New Bookish site - collaboration of 3 major publishers
http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/b...book-site.html
Quote:
Lemgruber said the main goal of Bookish is to make recommendations about books that will appeal to a reader's particular taste. He compared the site to things like IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes that mix information about movies with reviews and news. Editorial will include breaking news, author interviews, excerpts, reviews and other marketing materials that publishers feel will help readers pick a book, Lemgruber said. Although backed by Penguin, S&S and Hachette, Lemgruber stressed that Bookish will be editorially independent, covering books from all publishers (excluding vanity presses).
