Conclusions

Main Conclusion - Social:

  1. Respondents primarily write reviews, recaps, and notes to recommend books to others (friends, acquaintances, followers).
  2. The reverse is also true—people are more likely to read a book based on a recommendation from a friend or a trusted person.

A good recommendation system from friends is needed, adding community to the work plan.

Possible Improvements

Reviews are important, but spoilers are a problem. Think about how to avoid them. For example, templates for reviews based on feelings that minimize spoilers. Possibly introduce moderation.

The phrase “I try to read every day, but sometimes I forget” is common. This could be addressed with features like reminders, streaks, competitions, statistics, achievements, and similar elements.

Curated thematic lists based on interests, genres, or authors.

All respondents have a large queue of books they plan to read. It would be useful to integrate this and provide tools to manage it— like prioritization, grading for importance/urgency/desire to read, and tagging options.

Phone distractions: Consider addressing this with rewards or incentives for staying off the phone while reading (mentioned by one respondent—decide if it's necessary to pursue further).

Saving and sharing quotes: Respondents enjoy saving and sharing quotes. While there are already convenient tools for this, assess whether additional features or improvements are needed to enhance this experience further.
