Description by Forewords Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Import your Goodreads or StoryGraph library in seconds — then let Forewords find the next book you'll rave about.
Forewords uses AI based on your actual taste — your ratings, notes and patterns — to recommend books that genuinely fit. Not just genre matches: unexpected connections you wouldn't have found on your own. Every recommendation includes a personalised reason.
TRACK YOUR BOOKS
• Track every book you're reading, have read, want to read or DNF'd.
• Rate books with sentiment tags, and give all-time favourites a sixth star.
• Add notes as you read — dictated or written.
• Tag books by how they actually feel, not just genre.
• Create custom shelves and tags with no library-size limit.
• See severity-labelled content warnings before you start a book.
BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS
• Recommendations built from your actual taste — not the current bestseller list. Powered by AI.
• The more you rate and note, the sharper the AI gets.
• Every recommendation explains why it fits, grounded in your reading history.
• Get 100 recommendation credits when you sign up.
READING ROOM
• Start a focused reading session from any book you're currently reading.
• Use an optional timer while adding notes and tracking progress.
• Finish with a summary of your progress, active reading time and reading days.
• Review, add and edit past sessions in Reading Room History.
READING STATS AND INSIGHTS
• Discover the themes, tones and narrative styles you return to.
• Find your reader archetype.
• See patterns across your library you never consciously noticed.
• Explore reading stats that go deeper than books per year.
IMPORT YOUR LIBRARY
• Import from Goodreads, StoryGraph or another CSV in seconds.
• Scan barcodes to add physical books.
• Your data is yours — export it at any time.
WHO FOREWORDS IS FOR
Forewords is for bibliophiles and power readers — the kind who finish a book and immediately need to know what's next.
• Anyone looking for a Goodreads alternative with more personal recommendations.
• Readers who want a beautiful, private tracker without social-network noise.
• People who care about what they read, not just how much.
WHY READERS SWITCH TO FOREWORDS
• No ads, data selling, social feed or public-profile pressure.
• Recommendations and insights based on the themes, tone and narrative style that define your taste.
• Your private library, your notes and recommendations that improve as you use them.
A NOTE FROM THE MAKER
Confession: I'm not a huge reader. But my wife is. She reads 50+ books a year and asked me to build something that could discover books from what she genuinely likes and dislikes, reveal her reading taste, and go deeper than “another book by the same author.”
So I built Forewords. It's a reading companion, not a social network or streak tracker. I'm not trying to make you read more — you already do that. It's independent, meant to stay affordable, and will always have a free version.
I hope you love it. If you don't, I'd genuinely like to know why.
