Absolutely Fabulous App
So I have grown to dislike social media over the years. It causes my anxiety to go crazy and you can find so much negativity everywhere you look. But this app has been one of the most positive communities I’ve ever seen. Everyone has been incredibly kind, and I’ve learned about so many new books to add to my tbr! It also helps encourage reading through reading challenges, where you can join groups and discuss your books and what you might be struggling with. There are other cool things like interviews with popular authors/authors of the books that Owlcrate sends out in their boxes. You don’t have to be an owlcrate subscriber to participate in the app, but honestly I don’t know how you could resist once you see the images of the items and books from the boxes each month. If you’re looking for a safe space to find fellow book worms and discuss books, or if you’re even just thinking about trying to read more, I highly recommend this app!Show lessRCGViolet
Great bookish community
I really enjoy this bookish community app. There are lots of different groups to join and lots of events to take place in. There is a bit of a learning curve to use it but it’s a good source of bookish entertainment once you get the hang of it.Meggslovesu
Creating an Amazing Community
I’ve been really impressed with the Owlcrate app. Not only is this amazing bookish community so opening and welcoming, but it is also ran extremely well. There are many events and read a longs of different genres, along with chats with authors (both Owlcrate authors and not), members of the team, and creators! I can clearly see that this can only get better in the coming months and beyond. 💜Show lessRiley Masters
Great Bookish Community!
Love this app! It’s so great to be part of all the different groups and learn about new books and authors. There’s always great content and the app is easy to navigate.
It’s a must have for book lovers!Godlover7777
A fun book community!
The Nest is a lovely book community. A great place to talk to other book lovers! Live author talks. Added bonus if you are an OwlCrate subscriber, but you don’t need to be to join in all all the other chats and features!Kkcacw
Love this Community
I joined this app in the very early days, and I don’t regret it one bit. The community is so overwhelmingly positive and helpful, from providing amazing book rec’s to helping with finding info, as well as the ongoing book club and challenges out on by the admins and moderators. While OwlCrate is primarily focused on YA and Fantasy books, there are groups for every type of reader and you’ll be sure to find something you enjoy!Show lessjuxtaposedmusic
Great for those looking for more Bookish Community
As much as I’d love to have time to participate in a book club or group of fellow readers, I just don’t have the time or the network to work such a thing. I joined Owlcrate Nest expecting to get inside scoops and discounts for their box. What I didn’t expect was to find a place where book lovers (and likers) get together to talk books, tv adaptions, book news and all bookish things. It’s really a bookish network and community in an app and I’m here for it!Show lessJen10245
I LOVE the nest
This is the perfect app for book lovers. It’s not focused on numbers or aesthetics, it’s just an inclusive place for people to get together and talk about books and reading and similar hobbies. There are reading challenges, too, like the Words & Whimsy challenge that chooses a new theme each month and it’s just a super fun time. I highly recommend to any and all readers out there looking for community!!Show lessThisIsAGoodGameAPlus
Amazing app for book lovers!
The OwlCrate app is so much more than about a book subscription box. It’s basically a social media platform for book lovers. There are so many great groups, live exclusive author chats, and an amazing monthly book club.Lindsay1207
Great potential
This bookish social network has a clean, eye catching visual interface that’s really pleasant to scroll through. It’s a small, generally supportive community, but fairly homogenous in book tastes. There’s a LOT of Fantasy and YA discussed. The most active participants all seem pretty demographically similar. It can feel a bit like an echo chamber as everyone appears to be reading the same books.
For app improvements, I would love to have members be able to make their own groups or lists, like on Goodreads. And to make the app functional, I need to be able to choose what types of notifications I receive, instead of getting a notification every time someone posts in any group I’m in (some of which are mandatory). Right now responses to my posts are buried in my notifications and I miss them.Show lessssindc
