In this episode, host Geetanshi Sharma and guest co-host Anvita Patwari chat about the pros and cons of popular book tracking platforms, including Goodreads, Storygraph, and Fable*.

*This episode was filmed before the recent controversy surrounding Fable's unethical use of AI, which is the reason we have decided to transition to using Discord for our book club instead.
