Thanks for recommending StoryGraph!

A client of mine told me about Hoopla. It’s connected to community libraries and allows you to access e-books & audiobooks. All you need is a library card and it helps you get one if needed.

Idk if it’s black-owned but it is free so, passing this along ❤️

Yesss! Transferring is literally on today’s to-do list! I was scared of losing data (I really like having an accessible list of books I’ve read so I can reference them), but it seems like I won’t have an issue. And it just seems like a healthier place for my energy. Glad you made the switch!

I’ve been dragging my feet getting off of Goodreads, but @friendzonepod.bsky.social taught me that Storygraph is owned by a Black woman *and* I can easily import my reading lists there. Plus, they have better features. I have no reason not to switch 🤷🏾‍♀️

Finally listening and hear me out @heyfranhey.bsky.social - I’m with Verizon, and last month I traded in my iPhone 11 for a 17, and all I had to pay was the tax and the upgrade fee. Just something to think about!
