THE READER'S LIBRARY
A shelf for every weird little reading habit.
Your books, highlights, notes, reviews and beta feedback, all in one cosy corner. No algorithm, and nobody judging your fourth reread.

Your reading life, but make it unhinged.
QuillTide has a whole Reader HQ: books, memories, notes, friends, silly little rituals, and a Companion napping in your reading nook.
the reader HQ, in detail
It got a bit out of hand, honestly.
All of this is in the current desktop app. We didn't pad the list with stuff we're only thinking about.
Reader Library
Covers, book spines, personal shelves, progress, favourites, sorting, search, and format or reading-source tags.
Edition & Access
Track hardcover, paperback, ebook, Kindle, audiobook, Libby, library loans, subscriptions, ARCs, and borrowed copies.
Book Memories
Keep reading journeys, dates, ratings, reactions, favourite moments, quotes, characters, playlists, vibes, tropes, and moodboards.
Reading Nook
A calm, customisable room for your current read, goals, notes, keepsakes, everyday shortcuts, and your active Companion.
Reader Toolkit
Reading dice, roulette, collections and goals. Pick your next book without an algorithm breathing down your neck.
Bookish Social
Keep a reader profile, reviews, recommendations, discussions, buddy reads, and friend updates with explicit local exchanges.
Creative Studio
Turn quotes, covers, photos, and reading memories into postcards, graphics, moodboards, and social-ready cards.
ARC & Beta Reading
Manage active, upcoming, and completed reads, deadlines, protected copies, annotations, reactions, and final feedback.
COMPANIONS · BUILT INTO QUILLTIDEyes, that is a duck in goggles
Get a tiny pixel friend who cares about your word count.
Pick a bookish sidekick and dress it up. It hangs around your writing and reading spaces, gets happier when you make progress, collects keepsakes, and will absolutely accept a cookie. You don't need one. You're getting one anyway.

Meet the Companions →the playroom (offline, obviously)
Some of it is useful. Some of it is just silly.
The Playroom turns your own library and memories into little bookish rituals. It doesn't analyse your books, it doesn't send your library anywhere, and it doesn't use AI.
Roll the Reader Chaos
Filter your own library, pick a chaos level, and let ordinary local randomness choose what comes next.
Message in a Bottle
Leave a note for your future reading self and unlock it when a book is finished or on a chosen date.
Ticket Collection
Celebrate finished books with stampable keepsake tickets in Cozy, Library, Vintage, Minimal, and Dark Academia styles.
Cards & Postcards
Make character cards, quote cards, and postcards from the books and moments you love.
A tiny reading circle with no feed.
Exchange friend cards and updates deliberately through local files or QR codes. Share only the profile details, reviews, recommendations, discussions, activity, and buddy reads you choose.
No mandatory public account. No algorithm deciding what you see.
For when an author trusts you with the messy draft.
Open protected copies, read offline, highlight the bits that made you gasp, leave comments and reactions, track your progress, and send back feedback that's actually useful.
Explore Beta Reader Studio →PAs, we see you
Yes, PAs get a whole workspace too.
Optional PA Mode keeps multiple authors, books, campaigns, Quote Vaults, ARC readers, assets, resources, admin and calendars in separate local workspaces, so one author's cover reveal never wanders into another author's calendar. It sits next to the Reader and Author sides, because it's a different job.
