I have a book that no one else has.

I picked up a book while on the canals that no one else on Library Thing owns!

Mind you, it's not nearly as interesting as I'd hoped.  It needed a good editor, but canal biographies are probably a small market.

I worry deeply about the number of books I have, not only that no-one on LibraryThing has (had), but which I had to enter manually...

Now that is getting really obscure.

I think I may have one like that, but it's poetry and I won't get around to entering those for a long time yet.

The real fun is when you get one that not only is not on library thing but is also not found by librarian relative on the inter-library catalogue which implies the British Library doesn't have it either.

Found it in an auction site. Amateur Ghost Stories by H R Fry

I've just finished entering 271 books onto Library Thing, I used to have more, but before I discovered Book Mooch I gave a load to a friend who does car boot sales.

I've got one that nobody else has (from the David Carradine Kung Fu TV series) and another, Blake's 7 "Scorpio Attack" that only two other people have :-)
