        <description>LiberNovo’s Fall Prime Sale is coming and your limited free gift is waiting! 🎁 Check it out here: https://libernovo.com/pages/libernovo-maxis-dynamic-ergonomic-chair?ref=cqfjzzlc Book Orbit is a self-hosted app for books and audiobooks that pulls in the pieces you would normally run three or four separate tools for. Collection tracking, a built in e-reader, an audiobook player, metadata management, and request handling that works a lot like Sonarr or Radarr but for books. In this guide we walk the whole UI, then get into how I actually have it running with Docker Compose, a network share off unRAID, and nginx proxy manager. Full write up and every link is down below.
