Ooo, what's this, "Member Recommendations"?

I just discovered Member Recommendations and was so delighted with the recommendations I saw for Sum: Forty Tales From the Afterlives that now I wonder (I poked around unsuccessfully) where can I set my own recommendation on a book (to another book)?

I also finally made mental note to also look at the Lists where a book I enjoyed is on as well.

P.S. @DetailMuse thank you for the recommendations, they look spot on!

>1 DebiCates: Recommendations on the right on a work page, second module on that page is Member Recs and has an add button. There might be other ways. I distinctly remember adding them without navigating from work page, but cant find now

ETA: Member recs module directly on the work page has an Add button too, so just scroll down to it

>2 SandraArdnas: Thanks Sandra! How does one remember all this good stuff? I'm starring this topic so I can find this answer again when I'm ready to make a Member Recommendation on a book I've just finished. That is if I can remember one! :D

>3 DebiCates: I think I'll start adding more stuff to my notes app 😀 So far, I only added the message to sent to authors promoting where they shouldn't, so that I can just copy/paste it. Obviously, I need more LT-related stuff since I forget what I used to know

>4 SandraArdnas: Oh that's right...there's the LT Notes module! Egads, I have only been here not quite a year and I've already forgotten stuff too, even the tools that would help me find stuff again.

Whatever would we do without helpful people like yourself on Welcome to LibraryThing!...

>5 DebiCates: I put internal LT links in the module, but I meant real notes app, where I keep book notes and anything else that needs writing down. Aside from reminders for myself, they'd come useful for copy/pasting when others need the info.
