Goodreads is a social networking app for avid readers. It comes with multiple features, including finding books you’ve read and want to read, communities of like-minded readers, and even lets you follow your favorite authors. For those who want to add a challenge to their reading, Goodreads allows them to set an annual reading goal where they try to read a certain number of books during the year.
The app might look familiar to moviegoers because it’s similar to Letterboxd, a social platform for sharing movie tastes. Like the Cinephile app, Goodreads allows users to rate the novels they read with stars, along with a well-thought-out review if they choose.
While users can’t read books directly from the app, it’s a good way to keep track of different books and can even serve as a digital bookmark. Goodreads lets you update your progress with the book as you read it, making it easy to find your place if you accidentally lose your bookmark. Since Amazon owns the app, you can sign in with your Amazon account.
