How does it work?
The official guide to using Novirae to the fullest. You can come back here anytime via the "Help" link at the bottom of every page.
The basics
Novirae lets you keep track of every book you've read, so you can recommend one instantly when asked, or check reviews of a title you just heard about. We're a community of readers who love to discuss, rate and sort their reading.
Mark a book as read
On a book's page, the "My tracking" card lets you choose your status — To read, Reading or Read. To record a real reading, click "I read this book": you open the full form with date, rating from 0.5 to 5 stars, thoughts and tags. You can reread a book you've already read: every reading is kept.
To-read list
On a book's page, choose the status "To read" to set it aside. You'll find it again in your journal and on your profile.
Log a reading
Logging a book lets you note the date you finished it, your rating, a comment and tags. All logged books go into your Reading space, which will be precious for your year-end recap. You can also simply rate without logging.
Capture quotes
On a book's page, you can add a quote manually. All your quotes are searchable and taggable by theme in the Quotes section. You'll also get a "quote of the day" pulled from your own library.
Badges, levels and challenges
We celebrate every finished book with badges (Around the world, Time travel, Marathoner…). No global leaderboard — reading isn't a competition. Your stats simply place you relative to the community average, anonymously.
