If you want a service that lets you curate and share your book lists with friends and join online book clubs, The StoryGraph is a great option. The service not only tracks your reading activity and analyzes it to provide recommendations but also lets you import Goodreads data, join book clubs and use a mobile app. You can create custom tags, lists and reading challenges, and share your reading life with friends with live reactions and reading buddies.
Another option is Trellis, which offers an AI-powered reading companion called Celeste. It offers immediate answers and insights to your reading, and lets you share your reading logs with friends. It's geared more toward personalized learning and reading comprehension, but it's still got a social element for discussing books with others.
If you want a more community-focused approach, Booklet could be the ticket. It's designed as a discussion forum and member directory for professional groups, but you can create public or private book clubs, too. With threaded posts, AI-powered newsletters and customizable community settings, Booklet lets you have a more detailed and organized discussion about books.
Last, though not specifically geared for books, Socially is a platform that can help you create and manage online communities. With its collection of tools for creating, growing and monetizing online communities, you can easily set up a book club or other literary-focused group with a minimum of fuss.
