If you love to track your reading and discover new books, I can't suggest The StoryGraph enough. It's an alternative to Amazon-owned GoodReads that has many of the same features including book giveaways and community elements, and it's also just a great app in its own right. It's founded, built, and owned by a Black woman named Nadia Odunayo who is so thoughtful and driven to make TSG the best it can be. The app includes stuff like content warnings and mood/pace tags so you can find a book that exactly suits your moment!
Bonus rec: pay for TSG Plus. It's $50 a year and helps keep TSG totally independent from advertisers and massive companies. Remember, if the product is totally free that means you and your data are what's being sold!

It’s far better than goodreads bc not Amazon, I can give partial stars, it gives me analytics about my reading and they aren’t advertising to me. Also, started an”

“If you love reading and tracking what you read, but would rather support a Black woman-owned app than Jeff Bezos, Storygraph is the better alternative to Amazon’s Goodreads! Plus, charts and graphs!”
