Beautiful and useful website that I look forward to come back to. I, however, thought that the "RottenTomatoes for Books" was Amazon. In what is this site different?

Amazon is user reviews only. We like RottenTomatoes aggregate from professional critics like NYTimes & select bloggers to create a book recommendation of higher quality.

Amazon just compiles user reviews, not publisher reviews. Or am I missing out on something?

Rotten Tomatoes aggregates reviews from several different sources to determine a final score. Amazon mainly just employs user reviews.
