About Us
Addabook

Read, Reflect, Connect

Addabook is a dedicated space designed for readers to reflect on, track, and organize their books while supporting independent bookstores and fostering community connection.

Discover

Explore books to find interesting reads, not just what’s trending or generated from some algorithm.

Collection

Build a personal Collection of what you've read. Add a book to your Collection by adding a rating or a Note. Here you can track your total book and page counts and easily search through all your books, by date read, rating, custom tags, and more.

Lists

Go beyond your Wishlist (aka TBR) by creating and sharing custom lists for any mood, theme, or goal. You can take notes on individual books and track your reading progress within each list.

Notes

Capture your reading experience with notes and custom tags, without being forced into a star rating. Keep notes private or share them with the community.

No Distractions

No distracting pop-up ads cluttering your view and no comments threads – providing a focused experienced and judgment-free zone for you to write your reflections in peace.

Partnerships

We collaborate with book clubs, bookstores, and nonprofits to showcase their lists and to help promote a vibrant reading culture. Get in touch to explore partnership opportunities.

Community

See what others are reading, explore their notes and lists, and save your favorites for future inspiration. (More features coming soon!)

Support Independent Bookstores

Purchases made through our Bookshop.org links support independent bookstores and help keep this site running at no extra cost to you.

Addabook on iPhone

Add to your collection, write private or public notes, browse curated lists, and manage your reading from the Addabook iOS app wherever your next chapter finds you.

The Grind

Do you find yourself stuck in a cycle of all work and no play? Check out these titles. A lot of these picks are satirical because when you’re going through the daily grind, sometimes it helps to laugh (instead of cry). At the very least, many of these stories will help you know you're not alone. If you're starting to question whether the career you've been chasing is worth the cost, these books can offer a sense of solidarity and perhaps some insight on what to do next.

Books on Books

Ah, the sweet musty smell of paper and ink, the thrill of a library card, the dream of becoming a bookstore owner, the danger to your wallet of "just browsing." These are stories for bibliophiles and bookworms. Think of this list as a love letter to the stacks.

Feeling inspired? Send some love to your local bookstore or library
