Srota is a community for readers who love to share.
Lend and borrow real books with readers in your city and workplace. List the books on your shelf, discover what others are sharing nearby, and coordinate friendly handoffs — all in one place.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Share your books — add the titles on your shelf and make them available to borrow.
• Request & borrow — find a book someone nearby is sharing and ask to borrow it.
• Give books away — pass on books you're done with, permanently, to another reader.
• Track your reading — log your progress, see the books you've finished by month, and view your reading stats.
• Share reading updates — create a temporary public link to share what you're reading.
• Feels Like — post book-tagged thoughts, doubts, and original writing, and read what others share.
• Find readers — discover people in your workplace and city to exchange books with.
• Build trust — completed borrow handoffs and honest feedback help readers lend with confidence.
Srota is an independent, non-commercial project built for the love of books. No ads, no tracking — just readers sharing stories.
For 18 and over.
Share books with readers nearby, track your reading, and connect over stories.
