OK, so yeah, there’s
[https://wikisummaries.org](https://wikisummaries.org)
But it’s neither very good nor comprehensive. I think a user-generated Wiki that’s extremely extensive in its number of entries (like Goodreads) and has deep chapter by chapter break downs, user discussion boards, questions, themes etc. would be extreeeemely useful. I imagine it covering every kind of books: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, etc. or anything with an ISBN#.
I would like this personally because a lot of times I’d like to discuss themes in books that are a bit too obscure to get many replies to on a sub like this. If you are posting directly to the specific book’s wiki page you know you’ll be getting feedback from people also thinking about that book.

Or a sight like reddit, but instead of subreddits it’s books. The drama would be intense. b/1984 gets taken over by tankies, ironic racists take b/ToKillAMockingbird, people go to b/Ulysses because they hate reading, the drama would be tedious and fantastic. Plus have movies and albums, and why not Broadway shows too. Really build out insane fandoms.
The problem with talking about books online, and being online in general, is that people want to say what they think more than they want to read what other people have to say. Most people don’t have very much to say, and that’s fine, but we all think we’re the exception.
