Welcome to Copper, fellow bookworms!

We’re so excited to invite you into a world where authors and readers connect in meaningful community around books. We’ve got so much magic up our sleeve, and I’m honored to start pulling back the curtain on everything we’ve been working on. Whether you’ve been following our journey since the beginning or you just hopped onto the party bus recently, I’m so grateful for your support and thrilled about what we’re building together. And, I’m so glad that you’re in on the ground-floor as part of an exclusive group of early-access readers.

I’m an avid reader — you should see the stack of books on my nightstand! But in addition to wanting a better place to keep track of my TBR list, I founded Copper because I felt frustrated as an author. I didn’t know how to reach my readers, how to be discovered by new readers, or how to connect with people while they were reading my book. I realized I wasn’t alone! All the authors I knew — from first-timers like me to multi-bestsellers — were frustrated as well. Copper is the platform I wish had existed when I was launching my book, and trying to build true connection with my readers. I hope it will become a game-changer for you and how you interact with the authors you love and readers you meet!

Stay tuned for updates about the Copper app and how to get the most out of your experience in our community. In the meantime, check out this fabulous article about Copper in Forbes!

Here’s to reading more great books, and growing together.

Cheers,
Allison Trowbridge

Founder, CEO
