A community-powered guide to bookshops, built around the ARC — a 7-point framework from pleasure to purpose. What you're reading is tracked as its own private thread, because a book doesn't belong to the shop that sold it.
Standalone · free, no purchases
The ∂ button asks what you're actually looking for in a bookshop right now, and recalibrates the whole app around your answer.
"What is this one for you?"
The arc isn't a quality scale. A ∂1 can be a paperback read in one sitting for no reason you'd defend to anyone. A ∂7 connects to the question you're living inside right now. You decide where each book lands.
A bookshop is a place. A book belongs to you, wherever you got it. Incipit keeps the two threads separate on purpose.
Community-nominated bookshops filtered by your active ∂ lens — the room, the surprise, or the shop that just gets stocked well.
Place a shop on the ARC from pleasure to purpose. Not a rating — a placement. Where did this visit actually land for you?
What you're reading, have read, or intend to read — tracked separately from any one shop, private by default, never shared.
Incipit is free and standalone. Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play.
