Choose your mood, preferred genre, era, and reading environment. Or leave it on auto — BookTuning picks what fits best.

3

Get your playlist on Spotify

In ~20 seconds, your reading playlist is ready and saved to Spotify — with a note explaining why every track fits your book.

Why music for reading matters

The right soundtrack transforms your reading — deeper focus, stronger emotions, and a richer experience on every page.

Enhanced Focus

Curated playlists minimize distractions and create an optimal environment for deep concentration and immersion.

Emotional Connection

Music enhances the emotional impact of your book, making characters and stories come alive in a more vivid way.

Personalized for You

Unlike generic playlists, every soundtrack is specifically tailored to your book's unique atmosphere, themes, and mood.
