Read Your Novel Like a Real Book

Immersive Page-Turning Experience

Step out of the writing editor and into the reader's shoes. PureStory's book reader presents your story in a beautiful, distraction-free format with smooth page-turning animations that make reading your own work feel special.

Read chapter by chapter or the entire book in sequence. The reader remembers your position so you can pick up where you left off — perfect for reading sessions where you're evaluating flow and pacing across multiple chapters.

Customizable Typography and Layout

Choose from a selection of carefully curated reading fonts. Adjust text size, line spacing, and margins to find your most comfortable reading experience. Dark mode and light mode are both supported for reading in any environment.

The reader formats your prose with proper paragraph spacing, chapter headings, and section breaks — giving you a realistic preview of how your finished book will feel.

Built-in Dictionary and Knowledge Base

Encounter a term you've defined in your world? The built-in dictionary links to your story's knowledge base, letting you look up fictional terms, character details, and world facts without leaving the reading experience.

This is especially valuable for complex fantasy and science fiction worlds where readers (and writers) need quick reference to invented terminology and lore.

Inline Illustrations and Scene Art

If you've generated illustrations for your chapters, they appear inline within the reader — positioned exactly where you placed them in the text. This creates a rich, illustrated novel experience that showcases both your writing and your story's visual world.
