Type of Enhancement

Web Interface/Frontend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

It would be nice if one could read the synopsis of the book (and see details like duration and published year) without clicking/tapping on the book cover. I am trying to find a book to read and so far, I have clicked on 11 books, read their synopsis and hit back. But if I could just hover over a book and it popped up a window/frame (I don't know what the technical term is) which can be dismissed just by hovering out of the book, this would save a lot of time.

The same could be done on the mobile app with a long tap.

Why would this be helpful?

It would definitely save time. Specially when the connection is slow, the loading of the book info page and then reloading of the library (when you hit back on the browser or app screen) can take a bit of time and is frustrating.

More reader-friendly feature.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

NA (sorry, I don't have the skills to make a screen or draw one on paper).

Audiobookshelf Server Version

2.10.1

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

The library page.
