I love @bookwyrm #BookWyrm
It's not perfect, but it's good enough, and the community there is full of lovely people who are for the most part genuinely interested in sharing their love of #books and helping each other find something worthwhile to read.
The occasional communal gushing around especially excellent #books is also quite nice.
And it's one of the only social reading spaces where I feel like I can actually trust the #reviews, whether positive, negative, or neutral. For that matter, it's one of the few places online outside of dedicated book review blogs which actually contains a high proportion of thoughtful reviews.

forgot to mention: it's built for social reading. great for book clubs - read together, share highlights, discuss in context.

Früher galt Lesen als einsame Tätigkeit. Heute hat es ein Publikum. Millionen junger Menschen filmen sich dabei, wie sie Bücher hochhalten, lachen, weinen oder ihre Regale farblich sortieren. Willkommen in der Ära von #BookTok – der ersten Lesebewegung, die ihre Emotionen gleich mit ins Netz lädt.
The #RSS feed aggregator #FreshRSS; a 2009 #WebKit browser running on a 2015 #Kindle; and https://readup.org. It was a dream to combine them, and this weekend I set the first steps!
I’m excited about this for my own distraction-free #reading and #socialreading, and I hope more may find their way into this set of tools 😃 Here's a little demo 👇
I signed up for Literal.club, a less add-riddled social reading platform (it seems).
I recently finished reading the intriguing "Tu sueño imperios han sido" by Álvaro Enrigue.

If anyone would be interested, I'd love to create a "Club" focused on reading classic and contemporary works of Turkish literature (in Turkish or translation).
