the only book app built for romantasy readers.
Fantasy romance (and adjacent) books tagged across 50 fields. content ratings. tropes. mood. content warnings. emotional weight. audiobook info. all the stuff you want to know before you open to page one.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
• search by content rating (closed door to open door)
• filter by trope, mood, vibe, dynamic, archetype, creature, world type
• find books by emotional payoff (book hangover, the swoon, addictive read)
• match by when/where you want to read (cozy evening, rainy weekend, vacation)
• see content warnings sorted by severity before you commit
• import your TBR from Goodreads, StoryGraph, or a Google Sheet
• organize your shelves and reading status
• take a blind date with a book
• rank your reads
• the House may have some chocolate cake for you if you join the Inner Circle
• join pacts and covens (reading buddy groups) with chat
• try BookMatch - tell it the trope, the vibe, the season, or "give me an Aelin" and get exact matches
BUILT FOR ROMANTASY SPECIFICALLY
most book apps treat romantasy as a footnote of romance or fantasy. MoodReads treats it as its own genre, with the metadata depth to match.
content depth. character archetypes. world types. fantasy creatures. it's all there!
WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
• romantasy-first, not romance-with-fae or fantasy-with-kissing
• every book editorially reviewed, not crowdsourced chaos
• reader-funded. no ads, no data selling, no investors or corporate overlords
• built by a romantasy reader who scrolled her TBR like Netflix and finally did something about it
INNER CIRCLE
free forever for the core product (browse, search, shelves, TBR, browser extension, daily BookMatch).
the inner circle (our premium tier) unlocks unlimited BookMatch, shelf snap, the enhanced Goodreads + AO3 browser extension overlay, full reading stats (super pretty), unlimited shelves, share cards, and every future feature. (I've got some fun things planned!)

This app is a little glitchy but ultimately the best I’ve found so far for this area!! Excited to see how it improves and progresses!
Developer Response
hiii! thank you so much for this, seriously, made my day. the glitchy bits are real BUT i'm on them every single day - fixes are going out steadily, so keep updating and it should keep feeling smoother and more enjoyable to use. if you hit anything weird, please send it my way (bug report in the app or jenny@moodreads.app) with what you were doing when it happened. straight to the top of the list! so glad you found us 💜
Best App for Romance Readers
Beofgravity1
This is hands down the best and most used app I have. It has helped up my reading game so much and I’m never having to scour the internet for the right book again. The developer is also incredibly invested and kind and has responded to every single feature request! The aesthetics of the app are cozy and calming, the amount of data on each book is massive including spice levels, tropes, CW, and community notes. Truly 10/10 recommend!
Developer Response
thank you girly, you are a gem 🥲💜

A great app for sussing out spice!

I love this app! I am a low to no spice reader and this has helped IMMENSELY in picking books and cultivating my tbr. I cannot wait to see more titles added and the database expand. I also enjoy the cute phrasing everywhere and very pointed design, lovely!
