Three self-reflection tools

None of these are stored and none of them are sent anywhere. They exist to turn 'find me something good' into a specific, actionable starting point.

Find your next read

Answer a few questions on mood, theme and format and get a genre to start with — never a single named title picked for you.

What this is based on
  • Questions cover mood or tone, a theme you're drawn to, preferred format, and how much you already read in the genre.
  • Outcomes are genres and formats with what makes a good one and where to start — never a ranked list of named platforms or books.

What it cannot tell you: It narrows a starting genre and format — it can't judge whether a specific book is well written, and it isn't a substitute for reading a sample or the content warnings yourself.

Worth knowing

A recommendation without stated criteria is just marketing

Anyone can say a book, author or platform is 'the best'. What actually tells you something is why — what was measured, and against what. Every list and comparison on this site says exactly that, on the methodology page, so you can check our working instead of taking our word for it.

Compare on your own criteria

Tick what actually matters to you and get back which published criteria to check first — it won't score named platforms for you.

What this is based on
  • The eight criteria are drawn from what genuinely differs between ebook retailers, subscription apps, audio platforms and serial-fiction apps.
  • It weights what you tick, not what any platform pays — nothing here is ordered by a partnership.

What it cannot tell you: It tells you which published criteria matter most to you and where to check them — it does not evaluate or rank a specific named platform for you.

Privacy and digital-safety check

Ten plain yes/no items on the settings that actually leak — not a lecture, just what to check and fix.

What this is based on
  • Items cover notification previews, account sync, shared devices, public profiles and browser history — the places reading privacy actually leaks in practice.
  • It counts what's already in place and names the highest-leverage gaps first.

What it cannot tell you: It can't see your actual device settings — it only reflects what you tell it, and no checklist can protect against someone with direct access to an unlocked device.
