And it makes the literary friend a lot of work - the favorite books are here namely recorded and not in form of a list, but broken down into a lot of criteria. Additional directories as a personal dictionary and a book register complete the offer and make it - certainly from the perspective of many users - really about.
I myself am confessing frequent reader of about 15 novels and detective stories of the month and for years I note my reading in notebooks - listed by months I record titles and authors, plus a few minor comments on the specifics - and I evaluate each book, classically school grades.
For this book, that would be just a drop in the ocean, the recipient gets properly what to do with their respective favorites - the date of first publication, original language, various personal aspects: everything should be recorded neatly. Space enough for 87 books is available.
That's enough for me not even for half a year, for many a year it covers the workload now and for many quite sure what they so enjoy in their entire lives to relevant reading. For it might be what, everything recorded neatly. For the other a list of favorite books is conceivable because if one such detail like it. Myself it's just a bit too much, even though I appreciate entirely the idea and the careful finish.
