A warmer reading platform where reviews, recommendations, analytics and community belong to the same landscape.

The problem
Reading trackers can become sterile databases; social platforms can bury the books beneath performance. Hilareads needed to do both without becoming either.
The landscape
I connected goals, reviews, ratings, recommendations and community through reusable patterns that feel warm enough to browse and structured enough to remain useful.
The result
A product system with room for both analytics and intimacy. Early user feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Admittedly, she did marry me.
