Spindl: Reading Journal

Spindl is a reading tracker built by someone who got tired of Goodreads. Track every book you're reading, want to read, finished, or didn't finish. Keep a per-book journal as you go. Watch Spindl the hedgehog cheer when you finish one. FOUR SHELVES, NO ALGORITHM Currently Reading. Want to Read. Finished. Did Not Finish. That's it. No "you might also like." No corporate review feed. Your library is yours. A JOURNAL FOR EACH BOOK Capture thoughts as you read, not just a star rating at the end. Highlight a quote, log a session, snap a page with the camera. The journal stays with the book forever. ISBN SCAN AND OCR Point your camera at a barcode to add a book in one tap. Or snap a page to pull the text into your journal — handy for that quote you'll definitely forget. OPEN LIBRARY, NOT AMAZON Book metadata comes from Open Library, the free non-profit catalogue. Spindl is not owned by a bookseller. We don't push you to buy. STREAKS THAT RESPECT YOUR LIFE A daily reading streak with built-in catch-up days for Premium readers. No guilt. The hedgehog falls asleep when you take a break — they're fine. YEARLY READING REPORT A beautiful PDF summary of your reading year — book count, page count, top genres, top authors, longest streak.
