Most book apps feel like spreadsheets. LitList doesn't.
It started as a personal project... A way to finally have one place for every book, every reading thought, every quote that stopped you mid-page. Something that actually felt like your reading life, not a productivity tool wearing a library costume.
🚀 BETA NOTE
LitList is brand new and we're still actively building. We'd genuinely love your feedback — there's a button inside the app to send it straight to us.

📚 Your whole library, finally in one place
Physical books tracked by page. Ebooks by percentage. Audiobooks by hours listened. Scan a book's barcode to add it in seconds... or keep scanning to add a whole stack one after another, then review the full list before you confirm. You can also import your entire reading history from a standard CSV file — shelves, ratings, and read dates... in about two minutes.
✍️ A journal that actually lives with your books
Write entries as you read. Capture quotes before you forget them. Your journal is private by default — it's never shared with other users, never sold, never used to train anything. It's yours.
🔮 Recommendations that know your taste
Book picks built from what you've actually read and rated. Not a bestseller list. Not sponsored. Just books you're genuinely likely to love, based on your history.
🔥 Streaks and reading goals
Set a yearly reading goal and a daily minutes target. Watch your streak build. It's more motivating than it has any right to be.
🔍 Discover something new
Browse by genre, mood, or theme — or use AI-powered search to describe what you're in the mood for and let LitList find it. ("Something like The Name of the Wind but darker" actually works.)
⭐ Rate, review, and remember
Rate the spice, tag the tropes, leave a star rating, and write a review you can keep private or share with friends. Your library becomes searchable by the things you actually care about.
👨👩👧 Reading as a family
Create reading profiles for your kids under your account. Track their books and milestones together. No independent child accounts, no ads shown to children, ever.
📅 Series tracking and library due dates
Always know where you are in a series and what's coming next. Track library return dates so you never pay a fine because you forgot a book was due back.
👥 Friends and buddy reads
Follow friends, see what they're reading, and do buddy reads together — sharing reactions in real time as you both work through the same book.

No ads. No algorithms selling your data. Just a quiet, warm space for your reading life.
