I’m currently reading a book that is not in the app since it came out yesterday

Hi everyone! 😊

I’m currently working on my graduate thesis focused on UX/UI design and digital book clubs, and I’d really love to hear experiences from actual book club members/readers.

I’m researching:

• what people enjoy about book clubs
• frustrations with existing platforms/apps
• online vs in-person discussions
• moderation/community experience
• what makes people stay or leave a book club

Some questions I’m especially curious about:

• Do you prefer finding clubs through books/genres or through communities?
• What annoys you most in online book clubs?
• Do you prefer web platforms, Discord, apps, WhatsApp groups, Reddit, etc.?
• What would make a digital book club experience feel more natural and less overwhelming?

Any personal experiences, frustrations, or opinions would help me a lot 🙏

Thank you!

It's been two months (I think?), where is dark mode for Android?

Not only does it enhance user experience, but dark mode is an accessibility issue. Please, please, please give us the update.

I don't have a laptop so I was wondering if anyone that is able to use the chrome extension could add 2 books for me? I'd greatly appreciate it ><

A few people have asked for a weekly thread where you can share your Fable profiles and find new friends,

so here you go!

Just curious if anyone here reads extreme horror or splatterpunk 👀
I’ve tried looking for groups on Fable but most of the ones I’ve found seem pretty inactive/dead. Most book clubs I come across are focused on fantasy, romance, or general fiction, so I’d love to find people who are actually active and into darker horror books too.
Are there any active groups for the genre? If not would anyone be interested in joining one if I made one? It’d be nice to have people to actually discuss these books with because I feel a little alone in my reading taste lol.

i've been informed that they added dark mode but couldn't find it in the settings .

it's been 2 years since i asked if they'll add it and they said soon

Does anyone know if the app developers are working on being able to track audiobooks?? Is it on the radar? Something for the future??? I both read and listen to audio and I would love to have a clearer way to track both. I really like the social aspect of fable and I don’t wanna leave so I hope it’s a feature they bring sooner than later?

I'll try to make this quick. I joined fable kind of recently. I don't know how to navigate the club section or even how to search what I'm looking for. Does anyone know of or how to look for a book club that focuses on small town detective murder mysteries? Talking the kind of old people murder shows like Midsummer Murders, Miss Marple, or Thursday Muder Club (book, not show, but same vibe)

Please help if you know how to search, because rn I'm just getting bombarded with 500+ "popular" clubs from influencers
