I have to admit, give me a hard copy book any day to the online electronic version. An electronic book just doesn't do it for me! I searched Google book search, advanced search, Full view only and typed in Agatha Christie. I got everything but. My hits included book with content stating 'Sort of like Agatha Christie'; 'In the tradition of Agatha Christie'; 'In the Agatha Christie Style', etc. However, if I did the advanced search and selected All books, I got exactly what I was looking for but with no preview or snippet views. mmmm In the basic search typed in Lord of the Rings, got the right hits but due to copyright no views. Portions that allow views don't display every page, what good is that, may suit some'. I'd have to be looking for something I specifically wanted to get any benefit from Google Book Search.
Google Scholar, didn't have a problem, this is great for researchers and students alike looking for scholarly articles
