Works on every Notion plan. No integration, no OAuth, no server. The trade-off: the widget lives on our host, so it needs network access to render, and a workspace serving thousands of page views a day could hit fair-use limits. For offline-safe delivery, use the HTML block tab.

About this component

A private reading queue with a title, optional author, and a To read, Reading, or Finished status. The list does not search catalogs, fetch book metadata, or sync progress. Use a Notion database when a group needs a shared library.

What it does

  • Add a book or article with optional author information
  • Change status among To read, Reading, and Finished
  • Shows unfinished and finished counts; state stays in this browser
  • No book lookup, shared library, or external sync

Where people put it

↳A personal reading backlog
↳A lightweight article queue for a study page
↳A private queue before adding shared resources to Notion
