1. 5/5AMAZING APP

   I’ve been using Fable for over a year now, and I am beyond happy with it! I started with good reads but I hated that I couldn’t rate half stars, and after that I went through a LOT of apps. Once I ran into fable, I was sold! There are so many features (all of which are free) that I absolutely love. Not only can you rate half stars, but quarter stars too. Not only that, but you get yearly summary’s from your most read genres, authors, number of books per month, etc. They lay everything out for you!! You can also compare your charts to other people’s which is super fun and they tell you what kind of readers you are. Additionally, the home page is a place where you can scroll through the feed and see other people’s reviews, quotes, or even just random book related things! (It’s like an instagram feed) On the topic of reviews, leaving reviews on this app is so easy. You can go into so much detail and give warnings on what’s in the books, spice level, etc. and when writing a review there’s a “may contain spoilers button” so that when people come across your review, they have the option to keep it hidden if they want to be surprised with the book! You can of course skip any and all of these when reviewing. And I can’t forget about the reading streak tracker! All of these features are free, and I can’t get over how amazing this app is. You can also transfer all your good reads data to Fable, if you’re worried about losing your progress! 100% recommend!

2. 4/5Serendipitous find!

   I absolutely adore this app! It is my prized possession as of late! I was on the search a few months back for switches to be a more ethical and mindful reader. A reader I trust on booktok mentioned this app. The cute name and logo caught my eye so I decided to give it a try (and also wanted to help support a growing brown owned app)! Words cannot describe how much I love how organized and sleek the layout and user experience as a whole is. I love how the feed, book club, explore, and your profile are on separate sections so the app does not look cluttered nor overwhelming. I love we’re also able to filter the feed between “for you” and “following”. Speaking of filtering, I am so happy with how easily to tailor the notifications are. The bookclubs section and just ability to join bookclubs is my little reader heart’s dream come true. Again I cannot stress how well organized the layout is with different threads for chapters and ability to communicate with one another. As others have mentioned, the data stats are divine!! The 2024 wrapped is so insightful and so freaking cute!! Not to add, their is a cute holiday theme that gives you a holiday category! I also love how you’re able to read with your bookclub or on your own - and the app not only tracks your progress but also updates your daily tracker for you! My only note would be I wish our lists were organized alphabetically (but that might just be a me thing). So grateful for this app like again words can’t describe how happy I am to finally have an app like this. Thank you developers and team!!

3. 5/5Amazing! But Could Be More Intuitive

   I love this app! Of all the different book review and journaling apps, it’s my favorite. I only wish there were more ways to customize the content in your feed. I love seeing book clubs recommended, even though I don’t use them, and I love the random users’ posts that allow me to see others’ opinions about how/where they read, share what we’re reading, who we’re reading with (humans and pets alike), etc. But I hate hate hate! that my only option to remove content I’m not a fan of is to either mute all the content associated with certain books or mute users themselves. For example, I do NOT want to see bad reviews of books I left great reviews of. I understand why the algorithm puts those on my feed, and I do appreciate seeing different opinions, but it’s simply not something I want to use fable for. I’m in an irl book club, and imo that’s a much better way to discuss differing opinions than seeing a random stranger trash a book I dearly love. My only options when this happens are to either mute the user themselves, which I think would be unnecessary since their opinions are valid, or I’d have to mute all content associated with that book, which I obviously don’t want to do with a book I enjoyed. Some apps have “suggest less like this” buttons, and I’d love it if Fable adopted something like that! Or even had an option in settings that allows us to toggle bad reviews of books we’ve read or rated positively. Overall, the app is quite lovely, and I really enjoy that it feels more like social media than Goodreads or Storygraph, and I can’t wait to see how the app grows and continues to get better! <3

4. 5/5Love the app!

   I absolutely adore the app!! One of my favorite things about it is being able to see all of your stats, especially having the ability to see what books you read in what months and the reader summary. Every single time I put a book in the Finished List I find myself looking forward to what my Reader Summary is going to update to say, a few I’ve even laughed out loud too. But I do want to suggest a rereading option on the reading status, that lets me track my progress when I set it to Currently reading as well as keeping it in my Finished List, so that way it shows up however many times I read it on the Finished # of books so far this year. Now this doesn’t need to count towards my reading goal since it’s not a new book, but it would be nice if it appeared as many times as I reread it in that year. Other than that idea I just had (as I am currently rereading a book and went to log it so it would count towards my streak, but realized it took it out of my finished list) it’s a lovely app that I’ve discovered thanks to a friend mentioning it, in which case I’ve now actually started recommending it to other people and would 10/10 recommend it to you!!

5. 2/5Implementation sucks…really no other word for it

   Fable is a great concept and could be something amazing. But there’s a lack of actual development on features that would keep users from needing multiple apps. Now maybe they just want to stick to the social/bookclub part, which is totally fine. But then just don’t bother having the book tracking system if you can’t even make it work properly after how many years? And then the new subscription model is…for the book tracking system. That already doesn’t really work. Multiple users have been told Fable will NOT work on updating their library. I just don’t see why anyone would want to come to Fable and choose to pay a subscription for something that’s not actually a working system. Not to mention the lack of dark mode, which Fable claims is too difficult for them to develop? I’m unsure how anyone would put their money and time in using an app where they don’t want to work on developing an accessibility feature. And it’s confusing because there’s a dark mode for the ebooks they sell! I completely understand the need for a subscription/paid app features. But when the money isn’t going towards the features users actually want…what’s the point? I know many users will pay just to support the company and I have done that myself. But I just don’t see any progress on the development of the platform. It’s just adding things that half-work and not fixing bugs and issues that have been happening for months.

4. 1/5

   This app was great but after one of the recent updates everything lags. My status on books doesn't change probably. I have to close the app fully for books to move between "currently reading" and "read" and even then the screen keeps adjusting itself, jumping up and down. One book got added to my monthly reads twice. When pulling upp the stars on ratings it comes in later meaning i have to let go and grab them again to pull them all the way to where i want them on the right. just bad:/
