Obtaining a Cover display for a book in Recommendations Format

I am very impressed with the new Recommendations feature of LT. The book recommendation format which shows the cover and to the side the author's name plus beginning summary of the plus 'see more' I would like to achieve for any selected books in my catalog. How to do this?



Of course, I don't want the dismiss and add boxes

>1 JoeB1934: Just checked and descriptions are not among items you can include in display styles, so in your catalogue it isn't possible. You can have the description show on the book page. I think the default is to show it when unowned and not when you catalogued it, but you can set in preferences to always show them.

Edit: You can of course add a description to comments and thus see it in catalogue, but I'm assuming you were looking for something that would show automatically
