Your private reading life
Bookplate is a home library app for people who read for themselves — not for an audience. Track what you own, what you've read, and what you actually think about it. Privately.
Free up to 100 books. No credit card required.
Already on Goodreads or LibraryThing?
You've spent years building that list. You shouldn't have to start over. Bookplate imports your entire Goodreads or LibraryThing history — shelves, ratings, dates read, and all — in a few clicks.
What it does
Bookplate is built around a simple idea: track the life of your books. That shapes every feature decision.
Track the books you have in your home and where they live, all the books you've read, and the books you keep meaning to get to. Search, filter, organize, sort — it's your catalog to customize.
Share shelves and ratings with fellow readers in your home, but private notes are yours alone. No public profiles, no social feeds, no ambient pressure to perform your taste for strangers.
Remember who borrowed what — and when. Because sometimes your books go on adventures without you.
Set your TBR list or let fate decide your next read from your unread books and makes the decision for you. Sometimes that's exactly what you need.
Add your own cover images for that battered paperback with no ISBN. Organize however makes sense to you — define your genre list and the app will set all the appropriate detail to your shelves.
Curious about your reading habits? Rich stats and custom genre labeling help you see patterns.
Why not Goodreads?
Goodreads is a social network that happens to have books in it. That's fine — but it's not what Bookplate is for.
Your reading life is not a content strategy.
