the problem

Every reading app makes you settle.

You end up juggling two apps and a group chat — because none does great recommendations, tracking, and community at once. And not one will tell you why a book landed in front of you.

Goodreads
the complaint

Clunky and slow, whole-star ratings only, search that can't find the book in your hand, random recs.

StoryGraph
the complaint

Lovely stats and mood matching — but a lonely social side and pushback on opaque AI.

Fable
the complaint

Great clubs and vibes, but a thin catalog and an AI recap scandal that broke a lot of trust.

how it works

Smart recommendations. Nothing hidden.

Most apps guess in the dark and hope you don't ask. Moody does the opposite: she learns your taste, matches on feel, and shows her work.

Tell Moody your taste

Pick the moods you chase and your genres (each with an emoji), add a few books you loved — or import your Goodreads or StoryGraph library. About a minute, all skippable.

one-minute setup

She starts from what you loved

Books you rated highly or finished, the authors you follow, the moods you chase. A book that hits several of those beats one that hits just one.

your books, not the crowd's

See exactly why

Every rec carries its reason — "Because you rated Piranesi highly." Not feeling it? Dismiss it and Moody finds another.
