Pick some favorites so we know what good looks like to you.
Stick close to what you know or push into new territory. Your picks start arriving right away.

Wake up to three new books chosen just for you. The more you use Siftivo, the better your picks get.
Describe what you’re in the mood for. A vibe, a theme, a feeling. Siftivo understands what you mean, not just what you type.
Like it or pass. We show you one book at a time, matched to what you enjoy. Save the ones that catch your eye.
Keep track of your books, authors, lists, and reviews. Your personal reading home base.
One thoughtful review per book, per reader. Rate with half-stars, upvote the best takes, and get tips to write better reviews.
Every time you save a book, skip one, or finish a read, Siftivo learns a little more about what you like. No quizzes, no rating everything. It just gets better the more you use it.
