01

Time-consuming

Title, author, genre, description, quotes — every field typed by hand. 10 minutes per book.

02

No deduplication

Add the same book twice by accident and you'd never know until you searched for it.

03

Disconnected from your library

No quotes, no similar recommendations, no "you've read 14 novels this year" moment.
