Better Morning Reading aims to help people discover literature and build reading habits as part of a book club or solo with regularly scheduled reading delivered via email.
Hi Product Hunt!
I'm Danny, creator of Better Morning Reading, and I am excited to share some big updates to the product since the initial launch last year.
ā£ Introducing Bookclubs!
I am very excited to now enable users to organize their bookclubs online through Better Morning Reading. A club organizer can select the weekly schedule and have each chapter of the reading emailed to all club members automatically- so there is no need for everyone to buy the book. Let the Reply-Alls begin.
š More books
The library is expanded to 120 available titles. I am working on some licensing agreements and potential distribution with indie authors, but for now all the books are classic era titles (with expired copyright).
āØ Updated designs
I don't feel that the web interface itself is necessarily the star of the show, but I have incorporated some feedback I received on the designs from the initial launch. Don't worry though, if you enjoyed the initial developer-trying-to-do-design look and feel, I think we've still got it š .
š Can I try Better Morning Reading for free?
Yes! Users may read one book for free, either solo or as part of a book club. After that there is a nominal charge for membership to continue reading.

šŗ Who am I?
I am an indie hacker building Better Morning Reading in my free time (if you can call it that) outside of my day job and caring for my two young kids. The project is 100% bootstrapped without any funding or outside support.
Your post makes it sound like you might only have books people have never heard of on here, but there's some great stuff on here: Dracula, Moby Dick, Sherlock Holmes, The great Gatsby, War of the Worlds, The Time Machine
