Find the book without leaving Goodreads.

Jabberwocky adds a clean search button to Goodreads book pages, so you can jump from a title you're browsing to your favorite book search engine in one click.

Your Search, Your Way

Choose the search engine you trust. Jabberwocky lets you set your own URL template, then fills in the book title, author, or ISBN automatically.

Built for Goodreads

The button appears right where you already decide what to read, alongside Goodreads actions like Want to Read and Buy options.

One Click From Discovery

No copying titles. No switching tabs to type searches. Open a Goodreads book page, click Jabberwocky, and keep moving.
