📚 Good Books is a curated collection of book recommendations from the world's most successful, influential and interesting people. We've spent 6 months analysing 15,000+ book recommendations and have handpicked the best to add to your reading list.
Let me know who you'd love book recommendations from in the comments and I'll add them to the list👇
This project started about 6-months ago when I started to keep track of all the books that I wanted to read and who recommended them. I then got (a little) obsessed with the project and ended up accumulating over 15,000 book recommendations from about 1,250 people...
I built Good Books to share these book recommendations with the world, organising them into simple categories and industries so it's easy to find your next read.
What's next for Good Books?
📚 100s more recommendations every month 🙋♀️ Adding more interesting people (who would you like to see?) 📝 Writing some curated recommendation lists 📩 Planning a weekly newsletter with recommendations 🕵️♂️ Adding sources to book recommendations

I self published a history book with extensive maps. I prepared the manuscript online with Pressbooks https://pressbooks.com/, and published with Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/. Very satisfied with both. The book grew out of my website http://ravensworthstory.org/. I briefly describe the process of preparing maps for the book here... Source: over 2 years ago
So, I am aware of Pressbooks, which uses Wordpress. Also, Booktype, which looks like a fairly complicated system to set up. Finally, I can think of Open Monograph Press, which takes the complication process even further. Source: almost 3 years ago
