Great idea, so simple and someone had to do it given how much interest is in startups at the moment. Design tip, I would make the images of the book much bigger. And lastly to monetise you should link to Amazon via affiliates.

@craigjbarber would agree with Craig. Great idea and powerful library; but bigger images would help mobile users (and others). Would also like to see separate lists or tags for books to quickly filter them e.g. to see books only for UX.

Thank you for the tips @craigjbarber, we'll make the book covers bigger on the list view soon, until then you can check out the http://startupbooks.top/grid/ page, there the covers are a little bit bigger. Regarding the amazon affiliate link, it is actually already included but seems like it's not on the right place yet.. :)

@sc3wnet Cool! Yes, the grid view is a better size for your book covers, agreed. Yes saw the buy button. Nice one : )

Awesome list! Just when I thought I had most of them covered, sadly only 65%. Book Recommendation: By Invitation Only, by Alexis Maybank (http://www.amazon.com/By-Invitat...). It's the GILT Group story.
