Do any of you know if there's an existing (and good) lj community for book recommendations? ('If you like Book X, you'll love books Y and Z')
If not, I'm very tempted to start one myself.

Yep, I did, indeed, wind up creating my own.
Presenting NextBook Recommendations!
So, you’ve read the Best Book Ever ™ and you want more. Unfortunately, the author has no other books out (or you’ve already finished all the sequels.) Now what?
Well, now’s where we come in. You can browse recommendations by other readers who loved your favorites as much as you did, or add a recommendation of your own.
This community operates on the 'If you like Book X, you'll love Books Y and Z' principle. You make a post for a particular book (checking first to see if such post already exists.) Someone else who liked this book as well comments with titles of similar books they also liked. And so forth.
For an example of a book post, go here.
