Confession: I hadn’t heard about this bookish App until earlier this week. I’m not sure if I’ve been living under a rock or if it’s just that I don’t really use a lot of Apps in general on my phone… But after having great experiences joining both Twitter and Instagram this year, I decided to give this one a go.
What is Litsy all about? It’s a free App you can download on your phone and share book reviews, quotes and other bookish posts with fellow book lovers. As the official Litsy website puts it:
I’ve been asking around about this App on Twitter and people seem pretty positive about Litsy… So It’s All About Books now officially has its own Litsy page!
Feel free to follow me at yvo_about_books . (The same username as my Twitter and Instagram accounts)
So far I’ve managed to spam my new account with a bunch of reviews of a few of my favorite reads, but I will keep uploading new content during the next few weeks.
Feel free to add me if you have a Litsy account! I will always follow back. 🙂
You can also find me at Goodreads. Twitter. Instagram. Facebook. Bloglovin’.
I hadn’t heard of it either until last week. I’ve been thinking about it because you can add your review but I’m already hopeless at updating my instagram so I’m not sure if it’s for me 😄

I’m so glad you made this post. I just heard about this app earlier this week too, but don’t know too much about it. It peaked my curiosity and I had in the back of my mind to check it out. Well thanks this wonderful post you did the work for me. I’m considering it…I’ll find you if I decide to join 😊

I really like the idea behind this app and it’s quite user-friendly! My only complaint would be that you can only access your account on your phone (unlike twitter and instagram).

I heard about Litsy in a BookRiot post http://bookriot.com/2016/05/12/litsy-if-instagram-and-goodreads-had-a-perfect-baby/ . I loved the idea of it. I downloaded it immediately but I have found little applicable use for it. I am not artsy. I didn’t just cook a gourmet meal with a glass of wine, and stage my current read next to it.

Haha I can definitely relate to that; seeing all those gorgeous photos out there make my own feel inferior… But I do like the idea behind this app and the fact that it’s so easy to use. I guess we’ll see if i’ll keep using it after a few weeks/months though. 😉

To be honest, I haven’t really been using it since I got in a reading slump last year… I still have the account, so I might go back to using it later this year, who knows?

Seriously loved the “I didn’t just cook a gourmet meal with a glass of wine, and stage my current read next to it” comment – definitely not one of those peeps either, lol, so you’re not alone :p

I’ve heard about this but it’s hard enough already posting on Goodreads and Netgalley and Amazon UK and US.. I think I have enough work with those, but it seems like a great app as well!

I was completely unaware until a few days ago as well. 😉 I like the app so far; seems to be really easy to use and the community is superfriendly. We’ll see how long I’ll be able to stick with it though haha.

I read this post and was rather easily persuaded – the app is downloading on my phone as I type. I will see how I go with it. It may end up being one of those social media accounts where my account ends up languishing all forgotten, but it might be my new favourite.
