I created Daybook to recommend one interesting book every day

Book categories cover everything: from classics, startups, philosophy, biographies, science fiction, history, design, and more.

Each rec links straight into BookWyrm, so if you're new, it's a dead-simple way to start tracking, reviewing books on the fediverse!

Your effort is much appreciated! Do you manually choose a book from the github list of books or did you come up with some logic to choose one randomly?

Thanks! The list was modified slightly: added some missing isbn codes and added different book preview images (using open library api) then reshuffled the list so that books are random and not in alphabetical order. Then it automatically takes the fist one on the reshuffled list once a day and outputs as book of the day.

Not sure that link is working correctly?
