Karatu began with a wish: that looking back at your reading would make you smile, and give you a page worth showing a friend.

Karatu never writes a reflection for you. A sentence you mean belongs here, even when it is unfinished or changes later.
How recognition and reader choices work
A recognition comes with its reading evidence. You can inspect the books behind it, keep a reader type, give it your own name or leave it out. Reading history does not establish expertise.
See the reader choicesA private record. A deliberate sharing link.
Your account and preview are private. Making a sharing link creates a fixed version anyone with the link can read.
What the sharing link reveals
Your account, reading and corrections are private. Make a sharing link creates a fixed version that anyone with the link can read and download. Later private edits leave that version intact. You can withdraw it; downloaded copies cannot be recalled.
