A question for Mastodon: Would you read a book via RSS?

I've tried to work syndication into my site. You may read my blog via syndication, and I have feeds for the various authors on my site. I support RSS, Atom, and JSON Feed.

I've generally thought a feed reader might not be the best for a whole book, but maybe I'm underestimating #RSS.

I could imagine it working for a serialized novel, perhaps, or a short story collection.

@nantucketlit I feel like this used to be sort of more common. I can’t claim anyone read them, but I posted serialized novellas to my blog years back.

I’ve got a couple in various draft stages I’m debating still just blogging as first publish.

Fwliw, Award winning, best selling author John Scalzi did this with his first scifi book, Agent to the Stars.
