Liberom vs Thaal

Liberom is where your reading life lives: what you are reading now, what you have finished, and what comes next. TRACK EVERY BOOK Shelve books as want to read, currently reading, finished or abandoned. Log the pages you get through and the dates you read. Build your own lists, by mood, by project or by year, and keep them private or show them on your profile. PRESS START, THEN READ Set a goal, open your book and forget the clock. The timer keeps running while you browse, and every session quietly feeds your pace, your streak and your page count. Prefer to log it afterwards? That takes seconds too. SEE THE READER YOU ARE Hours read, pages, books finished, the hour you read most, your best day of the week, your longest session, your top authors and genres, the ratings you give. A year of reading, in charts. BRING YOUR GOODREADS LIBRARY WITH YOU Years of reading should not stay behind.

Thaal is a book discovery and social reading platform for literature that English-first apps serve poorly — starting with Malayalam. Most reading apps treat a Malayalam novel as a badly-spelled English one. Titles get mangled into romanised approximations, covers go missing, and the books that shaped a literature are nowhere to be found. Thaal is built the other way round: the interface is English so anyone can navigate it, and the books stay in their own script. DISCOVER • Thousands of Malayalam and English titles with real covers, synopses and author pages • Top 100 — the essential shelf, ranked • Browse by genre, mood, decade or literary award • Author pages with lineage, themes and the full body of work • Search that understands Malayalam script and romanised spellings alike TRACK YOUR READING • Shelve books as reading, finished, or want to read • Rate what you have read and write full reviews • Save the passages worth keeping • Set a Reading Challenge for the year and watch it fill • Year in Books — what your reading year actually looked like READ TOGETHER • Book Clubs — start one for your city, your friends, or a single author • Follow other readers and see what they are shelving and reviewing • Build and share public lists • Import an existing library from Goodreads BUILT BY READERS The catalog is editorially curated and open to correction — suggest an edit or report a problem on any book or author page, and earn a librarian badge for good contributions. Thaal is free, has no advertising, and does not sell your data. Discovery, shelving, reviews and social features will never sit behind a paywall. Malayalam literature is the heart of the catalog. Your shelf is your whole reading life — Malayalam, English, and whatever comes next.
