Жанр?
Если фэнтези/фантастика то:
Хьюго
Небула
Книг, "какие лучше проигнорировать" там нет.

Так как никто кроме вас ваших интересов не знает, то предлагается такая метода:
Выставляете оценки уже прочитанным произведениям - на книжной полке увидите в разделе Единомышленники пользователей либрусека похоже оценивающих книги, а в разделе Советы единомышленников - собственно те книжки, которые ваши единомышленники высоко ценят. Возможно, стоит положиться на их вкусы.

Я бы посоветовал обратить внимание на Андрея Буревого: http://lib.rus.ec/a/37715
Серия не закончена, пишется но обновления 4-й книги регулярно выкладываются.
Рейтинг скачиваний - свыше 10 000 каждая из первых трех книг.

Серия Песнь льда и пламени , это нечто !!!

Уже была Здесь чья-то ссылка на http://zhurnal.lib.ru/g/glushanowskij_a_a/spisok.shtml За исключением некоторых "не моих" женских авторов- вполне достойная подборка. Да и в Топ+оценки смотреть не забывайте (но нужно вычеркивать стефанимаер донцову и тп).

Вот здесь всё: поиск, книги, авторы, отзывы - http://www.livelib.ru/, регистрируйтесь и пользуйтесь мировым разумом.

список прочитанного - в студию :)
рекомендую Носова "Незнайка..." :)
Фейст "Врата войны"

а вообще подобные посты несколько странны. не указываются явные предпочтения, жанр..

предлагаю оформлять так:
"хочу найти книги в жанре фэнтези. желательно про коротышек. вообще замечательно если будет полет в космос. читал: Ленина, К.Маркса, бхагаватгиту." + пару комментариев к ним.. :)
шутка конечно, но что-то с этим делать надо :)

Блин, места не хватило для списка, короче от предпочтений зависит и от уровня читателя, кому-то и Минаев философ, кто-то считает его жалким подобием Бегбедера в укороченном варианте, мне Гюстав Флобер нравится. Генри Миллер, Василий Нарежный, потрясла книга Рубена Давида Гонсалеса Гальего "Черное на белом", Сартр, Камю, Томас Манн, Герман Гессе, Фридрих Ницше, Зигмунд Фрейд, Акутагава Рюноске. Особенно Генри Миллер "Тропик рака", "У подножия лестницы"; Рюноске "Муки ада". Любимыми являются Кобо Абэ "Женщина в песках" и "Чужое лицо".

Рейтинг 2004 или 2005 года, вполне хороший список, правда русских маловато, русские беру из других рейтингов, вполне достойные произведения, читал уже порядка 20- 30 книг, Флобера, Камю, Сартра,Толстого, Булгакова и т.д. Руководствуюсь и этим рейтингом. Состаявляло множество народа, список неплох.

А вы бы хоть пару книг привели, которые вам больше всех нравятся, а лучше 20-30 (по 2-м трудно разобраться). А может, это бот?

Довольно таки часто, в поиске хороших книг встречал это http://anri4.mylivepage.ru/wiki/876_Книги_для_мобильных_телефонов(jar).Постраничная_тематика.
Советую посмотреть.

В "толстых журналах" http://magazines.russ.ru/ рецензии почитайте, кпд конечно как у первого паровоза, но там всплывают вещи, про которые нигде больше не напишут. Ну и про премии литературные тоже следить полезно, кпд правда тот же...

Можно еще вот сюда сходить -

Оценить пару сотен книжек - и вам много чего насоветуют.
