Growing together
Since we began, Hardcover has been shaped by you - the reader. One of our core values is listening. Hardcover is made by readers, for readers.
Supported by the community
The community is our main support. If you enjoy using Hardcover, help make it sustainable by inviting others or becoming a Supporter.
Match With Books You'll Love
Hardcover gives you a score from 0% to 100% based on how likely you are to enjoy each book.
This match percentage is based on every book you've ever read, taking into account what books readers with similar taste enjoy.
Simplified Book Tracking
Hardcover is designed to be your "book brain". Track every book you might want to read, what you've already read, and what you're currently reading all in one place.
Set your status on a book, rate it, review it, add it to lists, track when you've read it and even track if this was an audiobook all in one place.
This prototype is interactive! Try playing with this demo and see how it works. If you love it or hate it, we'd love to hear your thoughts.
Reviews with links for creators
Whether you just finished an amazing book, or you're thinking about an all-time favorite, connecting with other passionate readers can revisit what you loved.
Our threaded discussions* helps you answer questions, remember the good parts, and even discover parts you missed.
