Squabble Inn

Audiobook clubs · iOS / Android / Web

Listen together.
Spoil nothing.

Squabble Inn turns your book club into a guild of up to six. Everyone listens at their own pace. Every note a guildmate leaves is pinned to its exact moment — and completely invisible until you've heard that moment too.

The Squabble Inn player the moment a guildmate's comment unlocks: a 'just unlocked' banner and Aldric's note at 5:00 appearing over Dungeon Crawler Carl
The moment you catch up — a note unlocks.

Notes wait for you to catch up

Nothing here — and that's the point. You can't see that a note exists, or who left one, until you've heard the moment yourself. Listen ahead.

The guild

A guild of six, not a feed of thousands

Found an inn with the people you actually finish books with — up to six seats, everyone known by name. Pick your next listen on the quest board, watch your guildmates' markers pace along the timeline, and meet in the tavern chat when a chapter demands discussion.

The gate

Commenting built for books you haven't finished

Every comment pins to a timestamp. Until your playhead passes that moment, a guildmate's note simply doesn't exist for you — no teaser, no "1 hidden comment," nothing to resist tapping. Cross it, and the note unlocks with a knock. Threads, reactions, discussion topics, even reread-only spoilers follow the one rule: you never see a word about a scene you haven't heard.
