📚 Time to switch to BookWyrm
EDIT: Fairly incredible that this article should appear on WaPo, which is owned by amazon.

I did move everything to bookwyrm… it’s just sooo in its infancy compared to goodreads. I hope they push updates on a fairly quick cadence and that more users join soon.

Bookwyrm is nice I also can recommend the App StoryGraph

I had no idea abebooks was owned by amazon. I thought I had found a usable alternative for books.
Alibris is a reasonably good alternative. Oftentimes booksellers will list their books on both sites, and so if you find a book you want on AbeBooks, there’s a chance that the same seller has listed it on Alibris. And unlike Abe, Alibris actually lets you rate the sellers! What a concept. 🙂

Thank you! I will try that next time I’m on the hunt for a new book!
