The Alternative to Goodreads: Bookworm App Founder Amelia Goodman

There’s no doubt that readers love talking shop (i.e. books) with other readers. But where and how do you cultivate that community, without the Amazon-ownership, plus an early-internet, Neopets-inspired aesthetic? Bookworm. Bookworm is the brainchild of Amelia Goodman, a place to track your reading, find new book recommendations, and meet and connect with readers just like you. Oh, and you get a worm avatar! And AND…you can put a hat on the worm! Today, Amelia Goodman chats all things Bookworm, cultivating reader-first communities, and why establishing spaces apart from Amazon is mission critical to the future of literature.  DOWNLOAD BOOKWORM: https://www.bookwormreads.co/BEFRIEND ME ON BOOKWORM: https://www.bookwormreads.co/profile/bsscpod INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/bsscpod NEWSLETTER: https://blottingpapers.substack.com SHOP BOOKS OF THE POD:https://bookshop.org/lists/books-of-the-podBooks, Book club, readership, literature, community, Goodreads, Storygraph, app creation, Amazon, founder story, interview, BookTok, Bookstagram
