A monthly bingo with a sticker album. - A monthly bingo: the books you finish fill its squares, and each square gives you a sticker. - A sticker album for every month: place your stickers yourself, and tap one to turn it and see how you earned it. - Win rewards for your shelf: a rose for your first line, falling leaves for three, a golden rose for the full card. - Give other books the same size as this one, from the book's editor. - In club chats, tap a name to see their profile and double-tap a message to like it. - SlowRead in Dutch, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and Polish. - Create a saga from any book, with suggestions in Edit book, and keep sagas together when you sort by author. - Change whose copy many books are at once. - Goodreads imports read the series from the title and send Want to read to your Wishlist. - Mark a book as read from the page pencil or the reading log when you reach the end. - A timed session that ended with the app closed, or was paused after its time was up, now ends properly.

User reviews

So FUN

I love this app so much. It’s been fun to explore new features when I log in. Being able arrange things and have more control over design per shelf has been so immersive and relaxing. I am a neurospicy person and I like how much control I get with design. Being able to see a physical representation of my books has been exciting and I like that it’s visually rewarding to see the books. Having different bookshelves is also really fun!! I have a different one for ARCs, my KU books, and my physical books. Sit back, enjoy the experience, there’s so much to find!!!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for this beautiful review! Hearing that arranging your shelves feels immersive and relaxing is exactly what we hoped for, and we love the idea of separate shelves for ARCs, KU and physical books. There's always something new coming with each update, so keep exploring and keep telling us what you'd love to see. Happy reading! 📚✨

Instant Pay wall

They get you into the idea and you can see it has potential but there’s no free edition.

You do have to pay for usage

I love the overall set up of the app but you do have to pay for it. It gives you a nice preview on how it customizes and what it looks like searching. But I didn’t realize it is an app you pay for as a subscription or $150 for a lifetime subscription.
Not a free app.

Ruim

Péssimo, pra entrar tem que pagar. Simplesmente horrível 👎🏾

Best App Ever!!

Joined this app a few weeks back. I’m addicted to dark romance books and I wanted an app that would have a virtual library for my books & I found SlowRead. I put a request in for more dark romance stuff such as themes and decorations.. and they did it for me! I’m so happy! Thank you so much guys 🥀🩶
