As an avid reader who often buys and records books, I developed this app based on what I personally wanted. I hope you enjoy using it. [FAQ] Q: Isn't adding books to the app a hassle? A: Not at all!

You can quickly find what you're looking for by searching by tags in the book list. Since there's no fixed genre system, the tagging system offers high flexibility and ease of use.
