Welcome to /r/RedditReads! How does this work?

16 Upvotes

Welcome!

Let me explain what is going on here. r/RedditReads is a sub that creates a list of what reddit users are reading. The idea is based on the r/books book banner that is shown on old reddit (although there is a bit of a debate about which came first, the banner or this sub) Unfortunately users that use the redesigned version of reddit or are on one of the apps to access reddit can't see the book banner. Which is where this sub comes in!

Where do the titles of books come from?

Just like the banner in r/books the titles of the books are gathered from the weekly What Are You Reading thread in r/books that is posted over there every Monday. A bot will post several of the titles mentioned every hour. This way the sub will have some new books for you to check out throughout the day. In the posts itself you will find a comment with the book description as found on goodreads to figure out if you might be interested in the book.

Posts

The post titles are formatted as follows: Title, Author, Genre, Publication Year. This allows you to search the sub by Title, Author, Genre and Publication Year if you want.

For some of the more common genres you can use one of these links:

Classics

Science Fiction

Fantasy

Horror

Mystery

Non-Fiction

History

Memoir

The sub is still a work in progress. No doubt there will be some glitches along the way, but I do hope that the sub makes it a little easier way to find some new and interesting books to read.
