About this app

Paragraphus helps readers discover their next favorite book through anonymous excerpts from a wide variety of upcoming fiction and nonfiction titles in English. Instead of scrolling endless lists and covers, you dive straight into the writing itself and decide based on voice, style, and story.

Open the app and start swiping through random passages drawn from carefully selected contemporary novels and nonfiction books. If a paragraph grabs you, tap to reveal the book and its author, save it for later, or follow links to learn more. If not, simply swipe left to move on to the next excerpt—no pressure, no spoilers, just pure discovery.

Our catalog spans multiple genres and perspectives: literary fiction, thrillers, fantasy, romance, memoir, history, science, and more. Excerpts are chosen to be engaging and readable on a phone screen while still reflecting the tone and substance of the full work. Because passages come from real, traditionally and independently published titles, some content may include adult themes, strong language, or challenging topics, similar to what you would find in a general bookstore.

Paragraphus is ideal for curious readers who enjoy browsing, sampling, and stumbling upon books they might never have picked up otherwise. It’s also perfect for busy people who only have a few spare minutes and want to spend them actually reading, not endlessly searching.

Features
• Swipe through anonymous excerpts
• Reveal the book and author when something intrigues you
