Create your own beautiful book review page with an animated 3D interactive bookshelf

Hey ProductHunt, Excited to share bookshelf.so with the world! I've always loved the idea of sharing your personal book recommendations, reviews, and notes online with friends & others in a way that goes beyond just a page of books with your ratings (like Goodreads). The books you choose to read, which ones you like, and the stories & insights you extract from them can both help other people, and also reflect parts of yourself in a rare way where others get to learn about you & how you think. I've also personally benefitted from these pages, since many of my own books have come from recommendations from book pages of Derek Sivers, Bill Gates, and others. Because of this, I spent a little too much time building my own person book review page with a full interactive 3D bookshelf, and when I shared it, everyone wanted to make one - so here's my answer to that request 😄 Nothing beats the satisfaction of clicking through all the books in one of these bookshelves and watching the animation. I also find myself more excited to read and finish books because I get to add them to my bookshelf, write about my thoughts, and share my reviews with my friends. I hope this can bring the aesthetic beauty, public thought sharing, and personalization that book pages deserve 📚 Now everyone else can build their own pages as well - hope some people have as much fun with it as I do 😄

Pretty cool, but wish the interface displayed more books covers and allowed for the creation of multiple shelves. I did the import from Goodreads and it worked pretty well, but I was expecting it to create and sort my books in the same sets of shelves I had setup in Goodreads. Does anyone else remember a tool called Shelfari? Man, I loved that app! I was sorry to see Amazon buy it and then nerf all the cool features as they merged it into Goodreads. I'd love to see Bookshelf.so incorporate the lost Shelfari features.

Fun take on sharing your books. It's still early in its development, hence the 4 stars rather than five. but with a few small bug fixes, a little more documentation, a UX tweak or two, and perhaps a few features more (like sorting for the user and viewer), this could take off. As it is, it very much works, and I've added it to my profile as a fun option to my typical GoodReads link.

I like it. Clean. Simple. Has the potential to become a better version of GoodReads as they add other features and mature the offering. Good start. (I like the hack of being able to bring in your GoodReads lists)
