Get Two Months Free of Readwise

Readwise is my favorite reading tool. I use it to automatically extract my highlights from physical books, and I use their Reader to read and highlight everything I find online.

It’s a total game changer for getting the most out of every book you read, and if you love books, you need to be using it.
