We have a very very exciting announcement: stats are live on the Pagebound app on iOS and Android! (web coming soon). Please make sure you're on the latest version of the app :)

This has been a long time coming as we've released smaller features to gather reading data: format tracking, page/minute totals, daily reading updates, and streaks. Now, you can see that data visualized on the Stats tab of your profile!

The top section shows your Monthly Stats, and the bottom section shows your Annual Stats. Next month, you will also see your Monthly & Yearly wrap-ups on this tab.

Royalty members have enhanced stats and extra graphs. If you're not Royalty and are curious to see the extra stats, head to a Royalty member's profile to check it out :)

This is just the beginning; we will be adding onto and improving stats, especially as we gather series and genre data. I am so thrilled to share this V1 with everyone now!

If you find your stats do not look correct, make sure all your data is filled in correctly:

• You can edit your daily pages read & minutes listened by clicking the streak widget on your home page to access Reading History.
• Edit format, total pages, and total minutes by clicking your Read Dates. On the last screen of the "edit read dates" flow, you can add/edit that info.

As a little bonus on the Reading History screen, you also see the pages read or minutes listened each day per book.

We hope you all enjoy this new facet of Pagebound! A big thank you to everyone for making this such a special community, and a special thank you to our Royalty members for making Pagebound possible with your support.

We'll be back tomorrow with some Readalong and Quest announcements!

Happy Reading, Jennifer + Lucy

Alright, so I can assume all us Boundlings like tracking our reading to some extent given our presence on this app. But I’m curious how many people have their own methods of journaling/tracking off of apps like this!

Last year I primarilly used a complex spreadsheet to track my reading, but this year I scored a dot grid journal from my secondhand craft store right in January so I could set up a bullet journal for my reading! It’s been fun, but I’m always nosy about what other people are doing 👀 digital tracking, bullet journal, guided reading journal, what are yalls thoughts and what matters most to you when tracking?

My journal:

• Bookshelf page for annual reads where I draw a bunch of books on a shelf & then write in the titles on the slimes as I finish books
• ARC tracking page (that is…dead on arrival. I have been really neglecting my arc reviews 😭)
• Bookclub Page for tracking our pick each month, if me vs my cohost ran it, my rating, groups avg rating, and attendance
• Physical TBR tracker, by genre, and I get to color in the dot by each book when I finish one (but have to add more if I buy more books 🙂‍↕️)
• Buzzwordathon Page (hosted by BooksandLala) to track what books fulfill the monthly prompts
• Year at a Glance where each month has a box where I put my total # read, breakdown by format, and the best & worst titles of each month

And that’s all I’m tracking rn for my first year! My reviews all get typed on here so I didn’t see a point in writing them by hand as well. But I’d love to hear if y’all have any other types of spreads you enjoy updating to get ideas 🤩

Do any of you have favorite bookish podcasts? If so what are they? Some of mine include:

• Lit Society: Books and Drama (ended December 2025)
• Book Club for Masochists: a Readers' Advisory Podcast
• Reading Glasses
• What Should I Read Next

I listen to bookish podcasts either for recommendations for general interest in a new book or genre, to listen to reviews of books I have read (or will never read) or to know what's going on in the bookish space in general. I tend to rotate podcasts through different reading seasons based on how I'm feeling.
