Most Recommended Books 2.0 — Books recommended by the world's most successful people

I am a big fan of this site, this site has helped me hunt and read new great books. Forget tracking every great personality on twitter just to find what they read, this website gives you a comprehensive list of the books to read with proof that the person has tweeted or mentioned about it! Great Product! Great Team! Kudos!!

Love the way this product is being evolved. More and more people around the world look upto to their idols and want to read/consume the same information that they are. This just makes that easy! Do you guys have plans to make this a community project? In the sense that people should be able to recommend books for influencers. Also- most people have libraries at their home. Do they actually read all the books? NO It gives a great signal of being a reader. What is the digital equivalent of that in today's world? How can people show themselves off as much smarter than they are? ;) In other words, can this become my digital library? A library I can share with anyone who asks me, what am I reading or things I have read(i.e library)

I’m a big fan of this site! Anytime I can’t decide on a new book to read I get a lot of ideas from it. Nice job on the redesign too!

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 We launched the first version of Most Recommended Books (MRB) a year ago. We goofed up our launch in many ways, so it went horribly (and we almost gave up on the idea). But something interesting happened... The website kept growing. Every 1-2 month(s), MRB's # of visitors and revenue doubled (and still do). So we decided to put more energy into it! The result is what you see now: MRB is the biggest resource of verified book recommendations. - Biggest because we have 4,000+ books. - Verified because we want you to navigate the site with complete trust (so *every* book has a link to the source of the recommendation). - We've also completely redesigned the site to make it cleaner/ easier to use. We're always looking for ways to improve, so we'd love feedback! 🙏

The recommendations were awesome. It's just that instead of just linking to the amazon site, you could've put a short summary to describe or give the idea of the book.

I love this webisite! Very useful :) I subscribe it. I think it will inspire me to run my book reading support app, too

Great. I wish I knew the site before. I read 5 pages a day and write about every day. 5pagesaday dot com Would you guys consider sponsoring my adventure? The current streak is 42 days in a row. I am really enjoying it. My intention is not to hijack your traffic hence why I fudge my link. Cheers 👍

It's a super useful resource. I usually have to search for articles by publications like Forbes to search for recommended books by successful people I admire. With this I don't have to and it considerably saves my time spent in discovery of books to read. Thanks for building this :)

I find myself taking some of the most recommended on this list and finding the goodreads ratings and reviews because for me it’s a better signal as to whether I’d enjoy it and the reviews there are more honest.

Easy to use and looks solid... Thanks for updating the website... Very helpful, specially in today's scenario

Great idea! As they say learn from the experts Congrats on better second launch of Most Recommended Books on PH:) And thanks for your tips! Well done

@richardreeze congrats on Rev 2.0! It looks awesome. Thanks again for the great podcast interview as well.

I just discovered that site and I am pleasantly impressed, I just have to thank my friend for telling me about the MRB. I always find myself going around in google searching for references to books and that site is a real gift. Thanks to those who have spread that brilliant idea. The design is very fresh, clean and extremely pleasant to look at. Keep offering us such a gift. Thanks.

It is an incredible site. Very useful, well done and beautiful. It is possible to notice that behind that idea there is a lot of work and dedication on the part of its creators. The new design is wonderful and when I access the site I don't want to stop browsing its pages. Thanks to the creators for that excellent work. Congratulations.

Hi Richard, I'm also developer and struggling with launching my products in some way. I read your story yesterday and actually inspired me. Your MRB I've just checked out is great. Simple enough for us to find a book and not too much information to become overwhelmed. The color of UI is pretty pleasant. I love that color pallete. And some information there such as "as seen as" makes me trust site more. Awesome.

It's such amazing website. Beauty and navigability in the same place. Very good idea. I will keep using it and and enjoying the next news. The design is clean and the user appreciate it.

I love that it’s one central place where I can easily build my reading list, instead of searching for hours I get to easily find books recommended by my tech heroes! :D

Enough great recommendation to last years of reading. Great stuff - definitely the first and last stop for my reading habits.

Stumbled upon this gem while looking for book recommendations. Great concept and really helpful, in terms of getting the book recommendations by the people who you admire the most. It also gives a good glimpse of reading patterns of these celebrities, most read and popular books among them. I liked the idea of ‘source of recommendation’. This feature in itself a great resource to track all good podcast, articles, blog posts, etc of your favorite celeb. I may be wrong here, but this website has a potential to become a smart child of IMDb and Goodreads. Nonetheless, Awesome work amigos, keep it up! <3

That site has come to make my life easier. Before, I used to spend hours looking for book references on Amazon and now, I am finding them on a site that allows me to choose and buy them easily and with pleasure. Thanks to those who have had that idea. I'm already talking about it to all my friends.
