New Book Releases and Upcoming Books Have Been Completely Redesigned!

We've given Risingshadow's [url=/new-book-releases]New Book Releases[/url] and [url=/upcoming-book-releases]Upcoming Books[/url] pages a complete makeover!   The old system, which had been around for quite a few years, has finally been replaced with something much more modern. Browsing books should now feel faster, smoother, and a whole lot easier, whether you're on your computer or phone.   The new layout is cleaner, with more focus on what matters most: [b]the books![/b]   [b]So, what's new?[/b] [ul] [li][b]A fresh new look:[/b] Books are displayed in clean, easy-to-browse cards with cover art, book details, and ratings.[/li] [li][b]Better search options:[/b] Search by book title, author, or series, and narrow down the results by genre or release period.[/li] [li][b]More sorting options:[/b] Sort books by release date, popularity, or when they were last added to Risingshadow.[/li] [li][b]Covers or List view:[/b] Pick whichever browsing style you prefer. The Covers view is especially handy on phones now![/li] [li][b]Less clutter:[/b] Search and sorting options are tucked away in an expandable menu, giving the books more room to shine.[/li] [li][b]Smoother browsing:[/b] Visitors can load more books without leaving the page, while logged-in members get access to more extensive browsing across the entire book database.[/li] [/ul] We've also put a lot of effort into making everything work better on mobile devices, improving performance, and making it easier to discover your next great read. And this is just the beginning! The new system gives us a much better foundation for future improvements.   [b]Go check it out and let us know what you think![/b] We'd love to hear your feedback, ideas, or any bugs you happen to come across :smirk:

Following the recent redesign of our New Books and Upcoming Books pages, [url=https://www.risingshadow.net/searchlist]Browse Books[/url] has now received a complete overhaul as well! :grin:   The new Browse Books makes it easier than ever to explore Risingshadow's book database and discover something worth reading. You can narrow your search by publication year or decade, combine multiple genres and tags, and exclude genres or themes you're not interested in. For example, you could look for high fantasy books published between 2000 and 2020 while excluding romance. You can also sort the results in several different ways.   One of the biggest new features is the ability to [b]create and save your own book lists[/b]. Once you've found a combination of search filters you like, you can save it as a personal list and give it a custom name. These lists update automatically as new books matching your criteria are added to our database. You can keep your lists private or make them public and share them with others.   We've also completely redesigned our [url=/searchlist/all/2026]Most Popular Books[/url] listings. You can explore reader favorites from specific years or decades and narrow the results by genre. The familiar fantasy, science fiction, and horror rankings are still available, but you can now explore many more genres from our database in the same way.   On the main Browse Books page, we're also highlighting a selection of interesting recent releases that have received great ratings from our readers. The selection changes weekly, giving you fresh opportunities to discover books you might otherwise have missed.   Feel free to explore the new features, experiment with different search combinations, and let us know what you think! We'd especially love to see what kinds of book lists you come up with. :)
