Popular Series Tracking Site FictFact shutting down tomorrow - Page 4

montreatgrad · 06-17-2019, 04:58 PM

When I saw the notice that FictFact was going to shut down I almost threw up. I am so heartbroken I don't know how to handle it. Might sound silly over a website but it was by far the BEST way to track series. Even adding an author, new series, or missing book was a breeze. I seriously don't know what I'm going to do now. I have over 1,000 books on my list (not sure how many series) and now have to find another way to track those. Then I have to upload all that info. :bigcry

was the best and easiest for series.

Try FantasticFiction.com. They do have limits though. It works for me as I don't follow that many authors (I have 95 listed), but at least it's something for your best 100.

authors: 100
books: 1000
wishes: 100

Reading through this goodreads thread it seems like the fictfact devs have been trying to get some other book reading websites to take over the fictfact database and system without much success and now have given up.

In the thread I also found another website https://www.orderofbooks.com/
And this comment

They said they are in the process of converting their site to perform the same function as FictFact. Looking to have a Beta going in September. Maybe drop them some words of encouragement to keep up the hard work.

It seems like some of the fictfact users have decided to resurrect fictfact. They are currently in the process of collecting as much series metadata that they can. Anyone interested in adding series they follow should submit it to them.

Hi All,

It seems somebody is trying to create a replacement for Fictfact.
However, they need some help with information regarding your favorite series.
