Recommends books by mood and pace rather than by what is selling.
Rate a few books and it profiles your reading by mood — reflective, tense, adventurous — pace, and page-count preferences, then recommends against that profile rather than against a bestseller list. Community content warnings and the stats dashboard are the two things people move here for. It is independent, which in this category is the whole pitch.
Questions
Free to use, but you have to register before it will do the job. You need an account and a handful of rated books before recommendations mean anything, and advanced stats sit behind the Plus tier.
Yes. The StoryGraph sends your input to its own servers to process it. That is fine for public material; for anything containing personal data, use one of the on-device tools instead.
