This is a dark theme for the goodreads.com website. This custom userstyle follows UserCSS guidelines.
Default is now the -Zero saturation version. It keeps the accent colors the same but zeros out the saturation on the backgrounds making it more grey. The zerosat
file will remain for users who have this installed.
Jade (OG) is the original theme. Seen here.
A userstyle extension for your browser is required, here are a few to choose from:
Install the dark theme with the links below. They support automatic updates.
Then, the raw file will open in the browser and the extension will open a new tab asking to install it. After clicking 'install style', you're finished.
Or visit the Goodreads dark (jade) theme at Userstyles.org and click Install Style
Copy and pasting the goodreads-dark.user.css or goodreads-dark-zerosat.user.css file into the extension also works.
Further instructions can be found here.

Image created in Color Deck
The color scheme was inspired by Jade City. Here's why,
-
The color above is Goodreads.com default link color.
hsl(176, 100%, 19%)
-
I read Jade City by Fonda Lee right before creating this.
-
What can I say? I had jade on my mind.
This turned out to be a HUGE undertaking. It definitely was the hardest I have tackled thus far. Holy mackrel, why is goodreads so against reusing styles?
I also took liberties with some aesthetics.
- The removal of many borders.
- Increased some padding here and there.
- Rounded out some corners.
