I recently discovered Bookwyrm and am really liking it. It’s not quite as full-featured as The Storygraph or Goodreads but it covers all of the most important functionalities and it’s federated which I appreciate. Something that it is missing Vs either The Storygraph or Goodreads at the moment is volume of reviews (ie. Volume of users.) However, your review won’t get lost in the sea so much and I’ve found that it’s been quite easy to find readers with similar interests.

Anyway, who here is using Bookwyrm? What’s your account so we can all follow each other? (Mine is Unfreeze4257@books.theunseen)

    1000% For me, a good book makes me want to write, and oftentimes bad books make me wanna write too! Reading can be a very solitary activity so just having a place to put your thoughts out there or see the thoughts of others to help you through your thinking is very cathartic. As much as I have resentment for Goodreads now, it has been a place where I have found so many new books through other reviewers - and hopefully Bookwyrm will continue to do that too.
