What Goodreads and Wibely have in common

Both let you track Books and keep a record of what you have finished. From the table above, both also offer:

Where Wibely is different

Goodreads covers Books. Wibely covers Movies, TV, Music, Books and Games in one profile, so the book that became a movie and the game that came from a show all sit together, with the same friends seeing all of it.

Wibely also has Wibe™ messaging: send a title to a friend as a card instead of a link, and talk about it in the same chat.

Who should stay with Goodreads

If books are all you track and your reading friends are on Goodreads, it does that job, and you may not need anything else. Wibely is for people whose year is a mix: a few shows, a stack of books, one long game and the music in between.

How to move your Goodreads history

  1. On goodreads.com, open My Books, then Import and export, and choose Export Library.
  2. Download the CSV file. In Wibely, choose Goodreads as the source and upload it.

What comes across: Ratings, reviews, the date you read each book, and your to-read shelf (into Saved). Books on your currently-reading shelf come in as read, so skip those in the preview if you are part-way through.

You see every match before anything is saved, nothing is posted to your friends, your original dates are kept, and "Undo this import" removes everything it added. The full import guide has the details for every service.
