A social reading platform for book clubs and creators. Features a full built-in EPUB reader, collaborative text-anchored discussions, anti-spoiler controls, multi-language isolation, and monetization tools for community builders.

Hello Product Hunt community! 👋 I’m the creator of BookGroup.social, and I’m incredibly excited to share it with you all today! 🚀 For over a decade, digital reading platforms have felt like cold, bureaucratic catalogs. They focus heavily on statistics—tracking how many pages you read or star-rating books after you finish—but completely miss the magic of *reading together*. Whenever people try to run modern book clubs, they resort to messy Discord servers, Telegram groups, or Patreon feeds where context gets lost instantly, and spoilers ruin the fun. We built BookGroup to fix that. We want to transform books into living communities. Here is what makes BookGroup unique: • 📍 Text-Anchored Discussions: You select any sentence or paragraph inside the book, and your discussion happens right there. It is like Google Docs, but beautifully optimized for reading communities. • 🛡️ Strict Anti-Spoiler Mode: Our system automatically hides comments and discussions from members who haven't reached that specific page or chapter yet. No more ruined plot twists! • 📖 Full Built-in EPUB Reader: No third-party apps required. Read, highlight, and sync your progress perfectly across Android and Web devices. • 🌍 Language & Multi-Instance Isolation: To foster true deep discussions, each language operates as a completely independent, isolated community within the same infrastructure. • 💰 Creator Monetization: Built specifically for BookTokers, BookTubers, and educators to host and easily monetize premium, private book clubs. We are already live in English, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese, completely compliant with global copyright and privacy standards (GDPR/LGPD). I’d love to hear your feedback, thoughts, and feature requests. What features do you wish your current book club platform had? Let me know in the comments below! Thank you so much for the support! 📚✨
