Introducing Readalongs — a new way to experience books together on The StoryGraph! 😍

This new feature lets users read a book in a group of up to 1000 people!

Hosts set up forums for different sections of the book and, if they like, can keep them locked to readers until they reach specific parts, making sure there are no spoilers!

There's also room for more general forums, such as Introductions or, at the end, "Who should be cast in the movie?" or "What should we read next?".

Even though hosts can set target dates on forums, the way readalongs are set up means that readers will feel part of a bigger group, and be exposed to a variety of opinions and perspectives, but can still read at their own pace and take part in the discussion.

Anybody can start a readalong and publish it to our readalongs directory. Right now, it's just a long list of all the live readalongs created, in order of most recently added, but in 2024 we'll add a whole range of sort and filter options, and a "For You" section, just like we have in Giveaways!

Ready to join a readalong or start your own? Visit our new Readalongs section to explore what’s already live or start one from any book’s page!

Happy reading and happy discussing! 📖✨
