HUGE NEWS! We now have our own custom search engine for books built on our custom book database built from Openlibrary data dumps. Now, you don't need to do an awkward `by:mishima` search or alike. If you want to search a book, search a book. If you want to search an author, search an author. It's intelligent just like you expect from a modern search experience. We use some really cool cutting edge tooling to ensure we deliver the best search experience as humanly possible. I hope you enjoy, and please let me know if you see any problems.

I know search was broken for a bit yesterday, and unfortunately it’s still degraded after patches. They are rate limiting us likely due to high traffic after they created a new security policy in May. Apologies for disruption. In retrospect, making our own book DB last month was very timely! Always trust intuition. We will soon move to our own search engine built on our new book database. Hopefully it will blow Openlibrary's search engine out of the water. We still depend on their external APIs for search and covers, both will be proprietary soon. 👷‍♀️
