If you selfhost audiobooks, check out ReadMeABook

Just a PSA. I didn’t see any posts on here about it, but have really been enjoying it and the wife likes it a lot. It solved a lot of manual effort on my part for getting audiobooks into Audiobookshelf w/o much manual intervention. The request system is similar to *seerr and its pretty simple to setup. Bonus: it supports OIDC out of the box, which I appreciate so I dont have one more account to manage.

Is it vibecoded?

Edit: yes it is

this feels like a harsh characterization. Their description of AI usage is exactly what I would want in a project using AI. I haven’t looked at their actual practices, so I guess I am trusting on that side. All that said, this is similar to my workflow at work, so I am not as negative on it.



Shelfmark has similar functionality and isn’t vibe coded, to my knowledge


10/10 for not using g the arr naming scheme

Thats harrrrsh !

What sources is this searching for books?

I haven’t looked into the config details too much, but I think its audible. I did see some hardcover & goodreads related code when perusing some of the docs, but didn’t really look much deeper.
