The Reader Table

Connect with readers. Discover books. Share honest feedback.

Honest readers for your book. Thoughtful books to read.

How private feedback works

1

Read a member's book

Pick a book that matches your languages and genres, and get private access to the reading copy.

2

Share private feedback

Answer a few guided questions. Honest and constructive is what counts. It doesn't have to be positive.

3

Find readers for your book

With a paid author membership you can list your own books and request feedback from the community.

Feedback always comes from another member. Two members can never trade feedback with each other.

For authors

  • Structured feedback on plot, characters, clarity and structure
  • Your manuscript stays private, shared only with matched readers
  • Optionally offer reading copies, with no review strings attached

For readers

  • Discover new books in the languages and genres you love
  • Read at your own pace, within your chosen capacity
  • Never asked for logins to Amazon, Goodreads or anything else
