It's the ultimate interactive tool for readers stuck in a slump or looking to add some surprise to their next book choice, turning your massive To-Be-Read pile from a source of stress into a source of fun.

  • Massive Prompt Library
    This wheel is loaded with a diverse, comprehensive list of over 140 prompts covering everything from cover colors ('Red cover') to genres ('Dystopian') to reading challenges ('Author you hate').
  • Creative Categorization
    Prompts are brilliantly organized to help you explore different facets of your TBR. Discover books by attributes like representation ('Own voices'), source ('Library book'), or even quirky criteria ('Animal on the cover').
  • Interactive Gamification
    More than a simple list, it's an interactive game. Spin the wheel and let chance guide you to your next great read, whether it's a 'Most anticipated' title or a book with 'Sprayed edges.'

  • End Reader's Indecision
    The wheel instantly cuts through choice paralysis by making the decision for you randomly, letting you focus on the book, not the selection process. No more 'mood reading' overwhelm!
  • Vow Reader and Build Community

  • Rediscover and Prioritize Your Collection
    This tool helps you rediscover books you own but have forgotten, like those 'Thrifted' finds or books you rated highly years ago. It also helps you prioritize reads based on fresh, fun criteria instead of just release dates.
