Description

Bookworm Reads is a book tracker & joyful community app. On Bookworm, you can track your books, see what your friends are reading, rate, review, and discuss books, create and join book clubs, and be a part of a vibrant digital community of readers.

Discover new books to save to your library, create your own customizable bookshelves, send and receive book recommendations from friends, and join community reading challenges.

The best part of all: dress up your wormy avatar from a variety of outfits, hats, accessories, and more!

Import your Goodreads data: Say goodbye to Amazon-owned Goodreads, and keep your bookshelves just as you left them. Import from Goodreads and start using Bookworm.

Simple, beautiful, book tracking. Track & categorize your books into bookshelves: books you want to read, have read, are currently reading. Plus, create your own custom bookshelves. Your 5-star club, books you DNF (did not finish), abandoned, repeat reads; whatever your heart desires. Add as many shelves as you want--no power-tools required.

Join community reading challenges. Set a reading goal for yourself and let your friends cheer you on. The number of books you set as your goal is only visible to you. Upon joining, you get the option to give your wormy a badge to show you're participating in the community challenge. And, you can edit your goal number as the challenge continues.

Share book recommendations. Send recommendations to friends and get them in return. Get notified whenever someone starts reading the book you recommended, and check out their review when they finish. All books recommended to you get saved to a bookshelf so you'll never lose them.

amazing app with amazing creators!!

I first downloaded it cause the app icon was so cute , and I was not disappointed. The aesthetic of it is very fun and fresh. The community aspect of it is wonderful, I love chatting with all the other worms , and getting recommendations! You can create as many book shelves as you want, and they have book challenges you can join, or you can make your own. The creators are very active on the app itself, and respond in a timely manor when it comes to help questions. They are always asking the worm community for ways to improve the app, and that alone is 5 starts to me. It’s very inclusive , they clearly care about their users, and it feels like I just have a bunch of new besties. I’m very excited to see what else they come up with, for this already amazing app.

Promising!

I don’t think I’ve ever written an app review but because this is so promising I feel like it’s worth pointing out what’s effective/ineffective so far.

For starters, the aesthetic and interface are a fun and vibrant change from Goodreads. I really dig the colors and worm customization (sounds silly but it’s fun). I also appreciate how the navigation borrows from other social media platforms thus feeling familiar, accessible, and intuitive. Because it kinda operates like Twitter or a message board, I feel like it’ll be easier to organically build community. On top that, the half-star review system is a pleasant change from Goodreads.

With all that said, it looks like the app is still figuring itself out, which is cool but I hope it doesn’t take years of development! I’d love to be able to select different editions when choosing a book to place on my shelf. As of now, it seems like the cover that’s displayed is arbitrary. I’d also like more flexibility/customization in setting my own reading challenges up. Finally, I’d really like some sort of stat system in my library similar to StoryGraph or even something like Letterboxd. I’ve always wondered why Goodreads and the likes are so boring and out of date in comparison to something like Letterboxd, and I don’t see why this app can’t be for literature what that platform is for film in its own unique way.

So fun to use!

I wanted to get an app that I could use to keep track of my reading, and also to gather book ideas for me to read! After downloading almost 10 different apps, I landed on this one and I absolutely love it. You can share with the community, make friends! Its also packed full of bookworms, so if you don’t have one near you, just join the app!
