About this Project:

There are people that like to read there but have a hard time finding books to read because they don’t know where and how to pick a book they’ll actually like when there’s thousands of different books. However, there are people that think they don’t like to read because they simply haven't found the right book that matches their interest. "BookLook" is an app to help people have an easier time finding books that fit their interest by Genre and NYC best sellers. Right now this app is a part of what I want it to actually become, right now it’s biased since it only has NYC best sellers, however eventually it will have all books no matter the country. This app will help you realize that it's not that you don't like to read but instead that you haven't found the right books for you to read. The app works by having a quiz for your personal interests that will then give you a genre and book length that fits you the most from your responses, and from the genre and book length given there will be best sellers book to choose from. For the people that don’t need the quiz, the book gives you a randomized choice of books for you to choose from or an organized list of books ranging by genre, book length, and if best sellers or not. There will also be a notebook place to add all books read by genre and the book length.

Innovative thinking on how to encourage people to read more and why it is valuable for society.
Application is simple with clear functions and intuitive.

The premise that people may not read because they simply haven't found a genre they enjoy is insightful.

I love reading and the concept of this app! Your pitch was easy to read in Canva. It would have been interesting to see quotes from classmates on why they don't read as a personal statement. Overall, I hope this app keeps the library busy checking out new books!
