I built this app last week as a little side project - it took about 12 hours, so there are probably still lots of bugs. I wanted a simple way to keep track of the books I had read and am currently reading. You can checkout my profile here: http://rocketreads.com/feint
If you have any suggestions or ideas let me know.
@feint Anthony back with another beautiful product!

@feint What'd you build it with? Looks great, have been looking for a minimal version of Goodreads for awhile now!

@feint I really like your site. I did a similar project at the end of last year -- https://50books.org -- which is also designed to track reading lists in a minimal way. Great work!
PS: My URL is https://50books.org/list/dshaw -- I'm always happy to receive reading suggestions!
@feint Love the simplicity and the design! Would you consider open sourcing it so people can contribute to the product? Started mine here: http://rocketreads.com/TimPetricola
Really nice ... like the simple design. It's a refreshing break from GoodReads' clutter. Add a few options to customize your profile (or just pull in your Twitter profile) and it'll be perfect.
@feint this looks awesome. I'm looking for a combination of something super simple as this and something where users can login/borrow books. any suggestions if a tool like this exists? also, i have tons already bookmarked on amazon so if there is a way i can pull and sync that data, I'd love to link a personal site to this page + have my own comments on the book rather than this insane detailed summary. sorry just giving suggestions :)

Adding import feature from GoodReads would give me reason to expand my list, but already started anyway!
PS May also look at Degreed.com for how they import from Goodreads to user profiles...I keep track of books between GoodReads and Scribd collections mainly. ... Added to my Writing collection too! Thanks again.
duddddeeeee...
thank you for this. goodreads is such a mess, and their "newsfeed" thingy is garbage. all i want is something to keep track of my books. 🙏🙏🙏

Simple & clean design.
I think adding the feature of transferring the read, reading, and want to read list from goodreads to Rocketreads would help in switching process for the users. And ya, the user profile also needs work :)
