I like Bookwyrm. Pretty much the only thing I'd change about it is that only one other person I know uses it.

It's probably not the feedback you're looking for, but I'd rather not have another platform for it, unless there's a really compelling reason, or you have a plan to move people off Goodreads en masse.

I’m loving StoryGraph. I value its vast array of books, audiobooks, internet based “non-book books” (things that don’t have an ISBN). Also, it’s book import isn’t perfect but very nice. Lastly, I love their metrics. They’ve done an awesome job of it and it’s a joy to see them.

I enjoy Literal.Club for its large number of clubs and high interactivity. There are network effects that Literal has which StoryGraph just hasn’t achieved yet.

StoryGraph has tried to implement Community and Book Clubs but it doesn’t work the same way - Literal’s Clubs are for discussing books in general, while StoryGraph’s book clubs are focused on reading one book at a time, with deadlines, discussion sections etc.

A combination of the two which I can pay for would be mind blowing! 😊

Things that are/were irritating to me the most:

• Polish major platform doesn't allow multiple reads of the same book. I want to track the number of books I read each year and this was a problem if I reread something: I had to decide when to mark it or mark other edition to count it.
• Goodread's mess with book editions. There is no filtering on the edition list, so something like "Son Kichot" has thousands of editions and good luck finding yours.
• Goodread's inability to properly mark releases that are split in parts. So the LoTR: Fellowship is T1 of the series. And someone could argue that The Hobbit is T0 (there could be also something like short story between them - T0.5). That's okay. But now someone is releasing the Fellowship in two books. And the system doesn't work anymore as usually these are added as different works of Tolkien. It's half policy half design problem, but it makes checking the author's bibliography painful.
