Hi there! I created Reading Lately because I believe the best book recommendations come from real conversations with people we trust, not algorithms trying to maximize engagement.
This platform operates on a simple referral-based model—we only succeed when you discover books you truly love. We're also developing subscriber features based entirely on your feedback and requests.
