Goodreads alternative: The StoryGraph (thestorygraph.com)

A few days ago someone on the reddit sub posted a link to literal.club - however, I can't for the life of me get my goodreads shelves into it - I tried many times. In a last ditch effort, I created an account on thestorygraph.com to see if I could transform my goodreads CSV-export to a format that literal.club would read.

I did, but the import seems to have failed.

This led me to investigate thestorygraph.com and found out that it was created by a sole developer-girl based in London to be a "free" goodreads-alternative.

It has a paid tier (40€/year) but not sure what it ads.

I then added a few books on literal.club to see how that worked, and I must say that I like the info on thestorygraph.com better.

I hope this is of use to you! :)

Didn't know that. Loving the fediverse idea, I went with https://bookwyrm.social to track and discuss my reading progress.

I'm on goodreads. I tried storygraph but found it to be an overall bad experience.

Interested to hear about other alternatives.

Depends what you want I suppose. Storygraph doesn't have the 'practically every book ever published' of Goodreads, nor the ability to browse reviews sorted by star rating (AFAICT) but for cataloguing and writing reviews I've gone over to it completely.

Another option would be bookwyrm which in addition seems to be part of the fediverse: joinbookwyrm.com

Story graph is great. Just onboarded this January. Really nice stats and infos about books

The paid version gives extra stats and stat comparisons with other users i think
