ReadingRate · What's new · 2026-11-05
See what your queue does for your domains
The Library in the iPhone app now shows your reading as a path: the books you have finished behind you, the one you are reading in the middle, and your queue ahead. Each book in Up next shows how long it is in nights at your own pace, and, on Reader, what finishing it would do for your reading domains: which stage it reaches, or how many books are left to the next one. Finished books are grouped by the year you finished them.
Available on iOS.
A queue is usually a list of intentions. This one says what each intention buys. A line at the top reads the first three books together, for instance that they take a named domain to its next stage.
The rest of your want-to-read list sits underneath and can be sorted by what each book does for your map, by your own order or by length. You can start a book, move it earlier or later, or take it off the queue from the same screen.
Each finished year has a heading with its books, its words and its nights, and every cover carries a small star for each night you read it.
What it can't do
- This is in the iPhone app. The website has no such screen; its dated reading plan is a separate page.
- The domain lines are part of Reader. On a free account they show blurred, and the books, their order and their lengths stay open.
- Dragging to reorder needs iOS 27. On older versions you move a book with the menu.
- It is a projection. A book with no word count is treated as an average-length one and marked as an estimate, and the stage only really moves when you finish the book.
- At most two domains are shown for a book.
Questions people ask
- Does ReadingRate tell me which book to read next?
- In the iPhone app, the Library shows what finishing each queued book would do for your reading domains, and can sort your want-to-read list by that. The domain lines are part of Reader.
