BOOKSLAYER
BookSlayer started as a passion project, created to make it easier for everyone to join reading challenges.
I saw a lot of readers struggling with apps that were cluttered with ads, required logins, or didn't support reading challenges. The only other option was tinkering with templates online - constantly resizing book covers and editing after each read just to update your progress.
With BookSlayer, all of that frustration is gone. Now you can track your shelf, snap books to challenge grids with one tap, and discover new indie authors - just like me!
And the best part? It's completely free!
