I wanted book recommendations from people I follow, but most sites just list books without any source. I wanted to see the actual tweet where someone said "this book is great."
So I built a site that searches public tweets for book recommendations using Grok's x_search API.
How it works:
- Uses Grok API with the x_search tool to search X/Twitter
- Extracts book mentions from tweets containing "great read", "must read", "favorite book", etc.
- Each recommendation links back to the original tweet as a source
Tech stack: Astro, Python extraction script, Grok 4 API with x_search, Cloudflare Pages
Currently tracking 150+ personalities with 1000+ book recommendations, all sourced from real tweets.
Would love feedback on the UX or suggestions!
