Just like your Movies and Game database; This looks amazing!
Please explain how it is powered by Google books. Can members flip through pages of the books right on the website? That has always been the most powerful feature of both Google Books and Amazon.

I hope you will be doing a Studies (Research Database) Platform as well. i.e. integration with Pubmed API, Google Scholar and similar.
