JoyLit

Fiction reading and listening in one app

JoyLit is a fiction-focused reading app for people who move between written stories and audiobooks. Its library covers romance, fantasy, paranormal, mystery, YA and other popular categories, with a strong focus on romance themes such as werewolves, billionaires, mafia, sports and LGBTQ+ relationships. It suits readers who want a steady supply of serialized novels rather than a general-purpose ebook library.

Built around ongoing stories

Many titles are released in regular chapters, so JoyLit is useful for readers who like following a story over time and checking back for updates. Recommendations are shaped around your reading activity, helping you find books with familiar genres and tropes, including enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, bodyguards, rejected mates and secret babies.

Read when convenient

• Switch between reading and listening when audiobook support is available for a title.
• Adjust fonts and themes, including a light or dark reading mode.
• Save selected books for offline reading.
• Use daily check-ins, discoveries and other in-app activities to collect rewards that can unlock chapters.
