When a book leaves a mark, Readmarks keeps it. What you get: - A reading journal for your current books โ€” paper, ebook, audiobook, or borrowed - Progress tracking by pages or percentage, no timers, no streaks triggering quilt - Quarter star ratings for books - Quotes tied to the books they came from - Browse your finished books by years and months, with stats - Stopped a book?
