It's practically impossible to find the perfect readers' advisory tool. I like that there's a handy tab for "Read-alikes" right there for each title you choose, but found that too few of the titles I entered had nothing under this tab. I still like NoveList better, though it is harder to use since the redesign. I also like Fiction Connection, which comes free if your library subscribes to Books in Print--easy to use and usually on target with their recommendations.
