  • Series Sort or what feature are you dying to have!

    I know it is coming at some point but the one feature this app doesn’t have that I can’t live without is clicking on a series name and pulling all the books up. I am still having to go back to StoryGraph or Goodreads to see what book is up next for me when I am working my way through a series.

    I really can’t wait to see what is next for this app because I would like to ditch Goodreads for good. I don’t think StoryGraph is going anywhere because I am a little bit of a stat fiend.

    Is there any feature you can’t wait for.

    “ You seem to yearn for symmetry. “

    I’m going to start adding this coded threat into my daily vernacular

  • TBR

    How many unread books do you have to read on your physical book shelves? Do you keep them once they are read or pass them on? 📚

  • Why’d you pick your current avatar?

    Is it the colour? The similarity to your real self? A representation of your favourite genre?

    I’ll go first: I got drunk and decided to use the rice bowl avatar, because ”food for thought” was the greatest (and most amusing) thing I could come up with.

    Does anyone own a little free library? Does anyone go to them to get books?

  • Starter Pack Vol II just released !

    Hi all, we just released Vol II of the Starter Pack Quests! The Starter Packs are intended to be guided challenges for the genre. Vol I includes a mix of extremely popular titles and books that are considered foundational, for both new readers and readers that are new to the genre. If someone were to say "I wanna get into Romance, where do I start?" Vol I would be the place to start!

    Vol II is for those ready to dive a bit deeper past the blockbuster hits. These books are still popular but you'll find more diverse and niche titles in Vol II (we had a lot more wiggle room without the Vol I constraint of including certain authors and titles that are "cannon" for that genre!)

    Hope you guys enjoy the new Quests :) PS - you can filter for Start Pack quests specifically on the Browse Quest page, and if you want to see just the new Starter Packs, you can sort by Newest

  • Are you CONQUERING your physical shelf in 2026?

    Decided to wrap ALL of my physical books. 48 books ready to be read after years of putting them off (🫣) … I’ll be using a random number wheel and putting myself on a book buying ban until no more are left.

    Are you doing anything “extreme” to get through your physical TBR/shelf?

  • Book descriptions

    Am I the only one who gets irritated when a book description starts with "abcbook meets xyzbook"? It makes me lose interest in the book immediately, especially if they're comparing them with books that I don't like.

    It's also very silly because sometimes the book has NOTHING to do with the books they're comparing it too💀

  • Help pls 🐉💖

    Once upon a time, someone recommended to me a dragon shifter romance book, but I can't find it and now it is stuck in my brain. So I'm coming to the greater PB community for help since I couldn't find a list for this either. All I ask is that it pleeeease be light on the "alpha" and the "ur my mate" cause too much and I'm cringing.
