What is bookshelves.me?
You've read 200 books. How many do you remember?
Your highlights are split across Kindle, Apple Books, a Notes app, and a journal you lost in 2024. Someone asks "what should I read?" and you blank.
Goodreads was supposed to fix this. Instead you got a social network from 2007 that Amazon bought and forgot about.
bookshelves.me is what Goodreads should have become.
TRACK YOUR WAY Kanban board — drag books from Backlog ? Reading ? Done. Or use grid, list, table, or calendar view. Your books, organized however your brain works. Import your entire Goodreads library in one click.
REMEMBER WHAT YOU READ Every book gets notes, highlights, quotes, and your own take. Searchable. Private. Actually useful six months later. Not a star rating — a reading journal.
SHARE A SHELF WORTH SHOWING Your public profile at bookshelves.me/yourname. Build curated shelves like "Books that changed my life" or "Startup must-reads" and share them with anyone. Clean, beautiful, no clutter.
ADD BOOKS IN SECONDS 4 ways to add books: • Search by title or author • Import Goodreads CSV (30 seconds, everything transfers) • Scan ISBN barcode with your camera • Snap a photo of your bookshelf — AI identifies every book automatically
READING ROOMS Private spaces for book clubs, study groups, couples, or teams. Pre-built templates for different setups. Real-time presence — see who's reading what right now. Not a WhatsApp group. An actual reading space.
SEE WHAT SMART PEOPLE READ Browse bookshelves from founders, authors, and thinkers. Not algorithmic recommendations. Real shelves from real people. Found a book on someone's shelf? One tap to add it to yours.
ANALYTICS THAT MOTIVATE Books per month. Pages per week. Genre breakdown. Reading streaks. Yearly goals. Not because data is cool — because seeing "0 books this month" is the best motivation to pick one up.
Free forever (100 books). Pro for serious readers. Lifetime for believers.
