StoryGraph Onboarding Reading Challenge 2022
This year I’m making the leap to try out a different website/app to track my reading: StoryGraph. For years now I have been using Goodreads to keep statistics on what I’m reading, but there is increasing criticism levelled at this website so I have decided to give StoryGraph a go.
They have set up a little onboarding challenge for new members with six prompts that you can see here.
StoryGraph 2022 Reading Goal
Although I’m trying out a new platform, I’ll stick with my annual goal of 80 books which seems to be an achievable number for me.
