You might be thinking that the end of 2022 is so far away. After all, we only just passed the halfway point...

But when you consider the fact that we need to be ready with our 2022 Wrap-Up and our 2023 January Pages challenge on the first day of the New Year, alongside all of the other things we plan to do, we really don't have a lot of time left! 👀

Some of the things on our radar include the next iteration of our stats dashboard, book clubs, and our long-, eagerly-awaited dark mode!

Let's see how much we get done. I'm feeling optimistic. 😁
 

We also made a few tweaks to how our books are being indexed in order to improve the top hits.

Outside of the product, Abbie and I have been working on the tools and resources for our volunteers. Now StoryGraph Librarians have access to a tool that can consolidate different author records, and anybody who applies from today has a new and improved onboarding document to read through! 😊
 

I mentioned working on adding books to reading challenges a month ago, and I did gather some feedback at the time, but that body of work got pushed back! It's time to take another look at it.

We'll also start developing an easier way to have people join your StoryGraph buddy reads. Any guesses as to what we're planning? 

On the topic of buddy reads, Rob has been working on an update to take the suggestions of users who might like to read with you to the next level. 😌
 

Just finished reading The Deep as part of these buddy reads Rob is hosting via TikTok!

Have a great week,

Nadia
