Hey everyone ✌️ Excited to launch a side project I've been working on. 📚Good Books is a curated collection of book recommendations from some of the most successful, influential and interesting people around the world. Let me know who you'd love book recommendations from in the comments and I'll add them to the list👇 This project started about 6-months ago when I started to keep track of all the books that I wanted to read and who recommended them. I then got (a little) obsessed with the project and ended up accumulating over 15,000 book recommendations from about 1,250 people... I built Good Books to share these book recommendations with the world, organising them into simple categories and industries so it's easy to find your next read. What's next for Good Books? 📚 100s more recommendations every month 🙋‍♀️ Adding more interesting people (who would you like to see?) 📝 Writing some curated recommendation lists 📩 Planning a weekly newsletter with recommendations 🕵️‍♂️ Adding sources to book recommendations Follow me on Twitter or Dribbble for more updates and ask me anything! 🙃 Jordan

@jordan__hughes Hi Jordan, first of all kudos for your hustle, and your product looks amazing. I am documenting journey of makers, creators, entrepreneurs through out the world. The goal is to do a short interview, capture it in video, and let it out to the world, so that others can get inspiration. And also to get an acknowledgement, for you, and for your hustle. I would like to request you to email me, so that we can schedule some time, at tellmeaboutit510@gmail.com . Thanks, and good luck! Subodh

I often choose interesting books from various tops, but most of all I like fantasy about superheroes and detective stories. I also find popular science literature and books on business topics useful. But in order to read them, I need to have free time, the opportunity to concentrate and delve into reading. While books like the Cradle Series relax me. I think many people have the feeling that they want to choose a book to suit their mood. Therefore, I hope there are books on various topics in your collection so that everyone can find something interesting for themselves.

I'm curious if you're thinking about ways to help automate things so this can continue to grow and scale with less manual creation/input. Perhaps opening it up to a broader community of contributors, taking user-generated submissions? How're you tracking submissions? Spreadsheet? Sorting through email? Impressive project on all fronts, and to see it's all made on Webflow (/cc @callmevlad @bryantchou), to boot! Great work @jordan_hughes1

@callmevlad @bryantchou @jordan_hughes1 @scottmathson Automating this further would be the dream! I've added a submission form to the site which is a baby step towards that. At the moment, I've just hacked together a mega Airtable which batch imports 90% of the manual work straight into Webflow's CMS. I'd like to explore taking this a step further and automate changes using Zapier or similar... I haven't had any experience with this before. On the community front – that could be the next evolution! I'm exploring what's possible with MemberStack to see what's possible with nocode solutions at the moment. Really appreciate the feedback! 🤗

@jordan_hughes1 solid setup - great you’re making use of these tools for quick MVPs, further validation, and iterate and rework later. Let me know if you want any insights on custom development/code approach - happy to help and answer q’s. Solid launch day, congrats!

@jordan_hughes1 and for what it’s worth: I see a big opportunity beyond the affiliate model, too. You’ve consolidated hours upon hours of podcast interview book recommendations and other sources into a dataset here that I know other publishers and creators could and would love to utilize! Very marketable API here!

Hey I loved Good Books and it makes easy to get the recommendation for the next book that i need to pick up. One thing i didn't like the iOS App and as a Mobile Developer I can help. You can even just provide me the API's and ill try to do justice with the application. Let me know if interested. Thanks :)
