Social Media is famous for finding old friends, making new friends, and 'hooking' up. The coolest idea I have seen emerge from this technology is 'You Are What You Read', a social media site that allows you to share your five fave books with others.

When I say others, I do mean others. Their are already hundreds of online users. You can look at their faves, follow them, and send messages. Plus, you will find many, many famous people - Ellen Degeneres, chef Eric Ripert, Katie Couric, and lots of your favorite writers, newsmakers, and sports heros.

'You Are What You Read" is based on the new concept of a 'bookprint'. The site defines your bookprint as the books you have read that shaped your life, that left an imprint. We book lovers know this is true; nothing tells the truth of a person like the books they are passion about...

It is easy and free to sign up. You are not locked into the five books you start with and can change them at a later date.

My five favorites are listed above. Not all of my faves are available on Kindle at this time, (hopefully soon). They are all worth reading - more than once!
