How to always have an answer for “what did you think of that book?” #booksky

Pagebound keeps track of your Book Journey: from when you started reading to all of the posts & comments you made in the book forum, your progress updates, and your review.

You can now mute books in your home feed! There’s also a new “owned” toggle, “interested” reading status for those with overwhelming TBRs, and a section on Discuss to view book status updates from your followers! update your app to see these new features 😉

hii we’re the women behind this upstart book app taking on Goodreads (owned by Amazon, bleh) & yes you know we’re indie and humans because we literally turned our pets into avatars you can choose when you create your pagebound profile 😂

New feature 🎉 Track your reading progress (app update required): you can now track page or % read without making a post to the book forum. Your progress is saved for stats (coming soon!) & gets sent to your followers. Add a comment to the progress update from your profile!

how to find a book that fits your mood? try Pagebound's emoji search--just type an emoji and get back a random list of 10-12 books where reviewers described that book with that emoji. refresh for a new list!

Now seems like a good time to talk about why we’re an anti-AI Goodreads alternative. We can’t generate you a horoscope-like yearly reading wrap-up, but we do have values & exist to help the book community thrive #booksky

We’ve been trained to assume new = relevant, when that’s not the case (obvious when you look at media news cycles, but less obvious when you consider the psychology behind timestamps in social media content feeds).

Here’s what happens when you flip that thinking on its head:

#booksky #reddit wild to take product inspiration from a male-coded social media site, make it only about books, and suddenly, all your users are women 🤷‍♀️ 😉

If you’ve ever gotten to the plot twist and been dying to talk about what you just read with someone, Pagebound is for you. #booksky

On Pagebound, every book has a forum so you can read what you want, when you want, but still talk to ppl reading the same book as you.

Happy Earth Day #booksky! How to read more conscientiously:

1. Boycott Amazon & switch from Goodreads to indie, anti-AI alternatives like Pagebound (AI impacts the climate too)

2. Borrow from the library!

3. Buy used books, ebooks, audiobooks from indie bookstores (50 will offset your e-reader)

When you get to that WILD scene in a book and you don’t have anyone to crash out with…

come see what the chatter is on Pagebound, where every book has a forum & you can always find someone reading the same book as you! #booksky
April 21, 2025 at 5:06 PM
Come read The Priory of the Orange Tree with me! Or choose from 4 other books in Pagebound’s spring readalong!

Share your thoughts in the book’s forum & sort posts by % read so you can read on your own schedule but still read with others 💙📚
