Seitengefühl
Find books by feelings & tropes, not just boring genres.
Genres are dead. Seitengefühl is the book discovery platform built for the BookTok generation. Find your next read based on tropes (Enemies to Lovers, Slow Burn), pacing, spice levels, and actual feelings. Take our interactive "Reading Soul Check" to match your current emotional mood with the perfect Romance or Romantasy book.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm super excited to share Seitengefühl with you today.
As avid readers (especially of Romance and Romantasy), we noticed a huge problem: traditional genres don't tell you how a book actually feels. Today’s readers don't search for "Fantasy" – they search for "Grumpy x Sunshine", "Slow Burn", or specific "Spice" levels.
So, we built a platform that sorts books exactly how the BookTok community reads them: by feelings and tropes.
✨ What makes us different:
The Reading Soul Check: An interactive quiz that matches your exact emotional craving with a book.
Trope-Based Filtering: Search for highly specific vibes instead of broad categories.
Pacing & Spice: Know exactly what kind of dynamic to expect before you start reading.
Note: The app is currently in German, but the UI is highly intuitive.
We are just starting out and would love to hear your thoughts. Try our Reading Soul Check and let us know what you think of the UX/UI! What is your absolute favorite book trope? 📚❤️
Happy exploring!

Who hunted Seitengefühl?
Seitengefühl was hunted by Yannick Schneider. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
