What do you use to track your reading? (sh.itjust.works)

Hello all! I mostly use StoryGraph (my name is creadstoomuch if you wanna be friends), but I was wondering what other options y'all have found that work for you. There are many things I like about it (the fact that it is not an Amazon product, the design, the stats, the currently reading tracking abilities) but there are also some things I don't like (the drop down menus behaving irregularly and, in some places, very poorly being my biggest issue). I also use LibraryThing to find my next reads but it doesn't have the currently reading tracking of StoryGraph.

So what do you use? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

That is so valid and I’ve been considering doing something similar. What books API do you use? I tried various ones for a project a little while ago and was a bit disappointed in the data quality.

I just used the Google books API. The data quality is not great for some titles, but it's a small annoyance for the flexibility gained.
