The goal is to make very nuanced searches possible.
For example a search:
- Genres: Fantasy, Magic Realism
- Avoid Genres: Young Adult
- Ratings: medium (between 100 - 10,000)
- Published Date: After 2001
- Page count: >300
- Included in lists: Genius protagonists
- Not included in lists: Worst books of all time
Retired project. I'd still love to do this but book recommendations were made so incredibly good by LLMs and the driving need for this in my life has waned :)
- automatically add more genres/tags

Hey, I want to show you a book app I've been working on soon. I want to prep a demo though. Send me a few goodreads lists you like (imports in seconds, lots is great, 4 minimum) and a few you might filter by.
Example:
Good:
