Litsy vs Tertulia

Where books make friends. The only thing that matches the joy of reading a great book is sharing that joy with friends.  That’s why we created Litsy.   Litsy is the place to share and discover your favorite books with your favorite people. As readers, our favorite books are recommended by people we respect, not algorithms. The Litsy community is a groundswell of passionate readers, authors and influencers creating short posts about their "reading moments." These posts are made of blurbs, photos, quotes and reviews, and each post is linked to one book. Since enjoying a book has no end, Litsy is 100% mobile and allows you to capture whatever bookish thoughts you have, whenever you have them. Litsy also makes it easy to “go down the rabbit hole," browsing your feed while on the go. When you find your next book, it’s easy to add it to your stack for future reading. Talking about books is a feel-good activity. It shares a piece of yourself, and it helps others. To recognize this, we thought it would be fun to invent the world’s first “Litfluence” scoring system. Litfluence is our way of showing that what you say about the books you read matters. It’s fun.  It’s simple.  It’s rewarding. It’s spoiler-free and free to use. And it’s all about the book.   Sign up and get a little Litsy. We recommend iOS 9 or newer for the best experience.
