Your digital bookshelf.

Bookpedia’s purpose is somewhat dubious. Sure, it sorts your book collection and lists information like publisher, genre, page count, and summary -- but if you own the book, it’s probably already sorted on your bookshelf and you probably don't need a synopsis.

But like the feeling of pages on fingertips, there’s something romantic and desirable about Bookpedia. Adding books quickly becomes addicting and you’ll want to add each and every tome you’ve read. Besides scraping data and prices from sites like Amazon, Bookpedia serves as a digital trophy case to your literary accomplishments and can show you nifty statistics -- “Holy cow, I’ve read ten 1,000-page books!” And you can track which books you’ve lent out to your moochin’ friends, plus a wish list of books to buy next.

Bookpedia’s statistics are wide-ranging and completely awesome.

Unfortunately, Bookpedia misses the mark in several key ways. First, cover art is a mess of high-res/low-res product shots that screw up the beautiful cover flow. Second, the search is heinous. Many results, like Sin City, could only be found via a search for title -- not author -- while others, like To Kill A Mockingbird, had tons of duplicates. Finally, though a vast majority of books can be found through Bookpedia, not every book can.

The bottom line. If you're a digital bookworm, you want something like Bookpedia, whether you know it or not. Though for nearly 20 bucks, we wish Bruji had combined its other software (Moviepedia, Musicpedia, and Gamepedia) into one unified sorting utility.
