Hi everyone,

Hope you are doing well.

I'm a beginner reader and a developer, and I have often seen people share their reading lists, whether for recommendations or during monthly and yearly wrap-ups.

After going through a bit of a rough phase, I built a small app to help myself get back on track. It lets you create a collage of book covers from your Goodreads reading list, or build one from scratch. I've also recently added a monthly wrap-up option for Goodreads imports.

I thought it might be a simple way to share reading lists or create wrap-ups.

There is not login or payment required. It's completely free and open to anyone.

I wasn’t sure if sharing the link directly would be considered promotional, so I’ve left it out for now.

Edit: You should be able to find the link at the bottom of the image. If not, feel free to DM me and I’ll share it.

PS: The collage I’ve shared was made using the app, with some of my recent and current reads. If you have any similar recommendations, I’d really appreciate it 🙂

Thanks for reading!

Favorite Author

Hey guys. Has anyone here read works by Rick Riordan? Honestly his touch with mythology i.e Greek, Roman, Norse and Egyptian is outta this world 🔥🔥 I have read:

  1. The Percy Jackson franchise (Greek, Roman)
  2. Magnus Chase (Norse)
  3. The Kane Chronicles (Egyptian)

He has a way of storytelling that makes you get hooked in a not so subtle way. I have read all the series above more than twice and every time I just get lost in all the words. Who else is a mythology fan?

Looking for this

Anyone know where I can get the hardcopy for this book? I have checked in all bookshops i could think of. I already have the softcopy. And no, I don't want the generic copies.

Nairobi Litfest

Do you guys attend the Nairobi Literature Festival? I attended the one this past weekend and I can't believe we get to have all that for free. There were so many thought provoking sessions by award winning panelists talking about their craft. It is so inspiring, especially for aspiring writers. Can't wait for the next.

For short story lovers, check out Fanta Blackcurrant by Makena Onjerika, which won the Caine Prize for African writing.

I’m currently reading It’s Our Turn to Eat and I keep asking myself… was Kibaki actually the “clean” leader many of us were made to believe?

From what I’m seeing, it’s not that simple.

Curious how others see it—especially if you’ve read the book or lived through that era.

I am currently reading soft copy books but I love the beauty that comes with hard copies,any directions on where to find and purchase books,a place where they deliver anywhere (Kenya)

What kind of software / apps would you like to see that make you a better reader, writer, or book manager?

Me, for example, I'd like one where people can scan and upload their books, and have the option to rent those books to others.
