Description
Read Kafka in German. Camus in French. Cervantes in Spanish. Exercise the grammar and vocabulary you just met. Then write back. From A0 adaptations all the way to real paper books — Storica Club.
THE READING CLUB
Storica is a daily reading club for the language you're learning. One classic novel, one daily passage, one question only you can answer. Pick a book. Spend a month with it. Move to the next.
LEARN BY READING — IN 7 LANGUAGES
Learn French, Spanish, Italian, German, Portuguese, Dutch or English by reading the books you've always wanted to read. Native narration in every language, with sentence-by-sentence highlighting and tap-to-translate on every word.
THE SHELF — BY CEFR LEVEL
A0 (absolute beginners): daily-life scenarios told from multiple points of view, designed for first-time readers.
A1 (graded readers): The Little Prince, Pinocchio, Heidi, The Jungle Book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Aesop's Fables, Grimm's Tales, One Thousand and One Nights, Black Beauty, The Secret Garden, Pollyanna, Five Children and It, Beauty and the Beast, Wind in the Willows.
A2 (intermediate readers): The Snow Queen, Anne of Green Gables, Around the World in Eighty Days, The Odyssey (adapted), Wind in the Willows (extended).
B1 (early advanced): The Old Man and the Sea, Animal Farm, A Christmas Carol, The Stranger, the Iliad, Antigone.
B2 (classic literature in the original): The Metamorphosis, Madame Bovary, Pride and Prejudice, Crime and Punishment, The Red and the Black, Faust, The Picture of Dorian Gray. New books added every month.
EXERCISE WHAT YOU READ
Quick drills after every passage — vocabulary matching, fill-in-the-blanks, sentence ordering, true-or-false, listening, say-it-out-loud, multiple choice, spelling. Thirteen exercise types in total. Nothing random — every drill is built from the passage you just read so the grammar and the words actually stick.
WRITE BACK — REAL FEEDBACK ON YOUR WRITING
Each day ends with a prompt only you can answer. Use the passage's vocabulary in a sentence, a paragraph, a short essay. Submit and Storica returns specific corrections, strengths, and suggestions in seconds — real sentence-level notes, not generic praise. Tap once to revise and watch your text sharpen.
ACTIVE READING TOOLS
- Tap any word for an instant translation
- Native narration with sentence-by-sentence highlighting
- A personal vocabulary list that fills as you read
- CEFR badges on every book so you always know what fits
- Daily streaks tracked quietly — never demanded
