Reading better

Imagine a world where, every day, you get an email with a few highlights from books you’ve read in the past. This future is already here—it’s just not very evenly distributed.

I’ve been looking for the best way to pull highlights from my iPad (Apple Books) and Kobo lately, and that’s not all I found! It turns out that the highlights tool also offers spaced repetition. Via email! And even better: Via thoughtful email! You can:

• specify the time and frequency

• specify the recency

• filter out sentence fragments from the emails

• specify which books you don’t want highlights from, which ones you want more from, and which ones you want less from

You know when software feels like it gives you superpowers? This is exactly that!

If you invest time in highlighting books, investing in this tool is a no‑brainer.
