Updates and news from the team
Welcome to The Book Radar!
A warm welcome to all the new users joining the site. Considering our only form of advertising so far has been following people on Instagram and Bluesky, you’re probably one of the very first to sign up.
As more feedback comes in, we’ll be working hard to fix bugs, smooth out layout quirks, and improve any features that feel confusing or don’t work as intended. Below is a quick look at our current and upcoming priorities.
We’ve spent a lot of time on the mobile version of the site, but it still lags behind the desktop version in some areas. We’ll be focusing on this soon since many users will be accessing the site from their phones.
For users and reviewers with established followings on other platforms, the goal is for The Book Radar to be a tool that supports and even grows your audience. We’ll be improving and streamlining the integrations already in place and adding features designed for “Verified Reviewer” accounts.
I love seeing my own reading stats, and it’s one of the reasons I created this site in the first place. This feature will see major improvements soon, including additions like monthly recaps and other insights.
While we’ll rely heavily on users to crowdsource a truly extensive library, we’re also working on importing popular books from recent years to establish a strong baseline collection.
Tell us what you’d like to see! Many of the current features come from my own idea of the perfect book site, but I know there are plenty of great ideas I haven’t thought of. Use the Feature Requests page to share your suggestions.
