The books on Galatea are amazing and very enthralling. I can't stop reading any of the books I've started! I do wish there were ways that you can earn points after you do the basic ones. For instance liking on Facebook and Instagram is great but once you have those claimed the only other way to earn points is by your earning streak. I enjoy using reading apps I just wish there were other ways to earn points. Adding advertisement between chapters would even be acceptable.

It's a good app, but I couldn't give it 5 stars. There really needs to be more ways to earn points. It's unfair to wait so long for a chapter or pay, usually, a large sum of points with no other way of earning more than buying them. It really limits what I allow myself to read and get into. So please think about adding ways to get points like, for example, the Choices app did.

I've used this app on and off the a few years now, but I do think the app quality has gone down. There's less opportunity to earn points, they just want you to make purchases (I get it but come on, in THIS economy?!) What disappointed me the most is they changed up how they do audiobooks. Previously they had specific audiobook voices do different stories. And some even had two! (Like The Arrangement, damn good one. It even had two voice actors!). But now they have robotic audiobooks. Lame 😔

Ok, but I didn't like it when you read a book series, after getting to maybe the 2nd or 3rd series, or after a book starts getting interesting you can only finish by getting the subscription for $69 annually. It's not really bad for a $5.83 (I think), monthly subscription. Except you only have the option to pay the year in full. Some good stories, though.

It's a pretty good book app. However, it has problems! I would give it more stars if this issue were to be fixed. My phone gives me notifications of the Wednesday deals and weekend deals, but when I click to go to the app, the deals are nowhere to be found! I have already tried restarting the app and my phone, and I also made sure that the app was up to date and it is. But nothing fixes this issue.

Great app, only thing I would change is making a monthly payment rather then 69.99+ tax for a year I would pay ten every month which addes up to 120 a year. In my opinion, ten a month is more convenient than 69.99+ tax in one go. Otherwise, this is an amazing app. The wait is long, but the build-up in anticipation is a great business thing. 🙃 Though it would be preferred, the wait time was less.

I like this app and that it has audio books. I'm a busy mama and typically bustle around my house daily doing chores. It's been great listening to books as I cook and clean. I don't sit still much so audio works best for me but as of lately it's messing up. ALL my points disappeared and all my chapters are set back! Reading over a dozen books at a time due to the 6 hour timer makes it better BUT confusing at the same in some cases from repeated names and plots in these books. FIX PLEASE!😭

The app is easy to use, and the writing is a lot better than some other apps. It's cleaner. I hate the 1 chaper every 6 hours bit. But again, I am enjoying the storylines and character development. Just wish things weren't so overpriced or there were more opportunities to get through more content quicker. Definitely recommend kidnapped by my mate and the millennium wolves.

Im currently reading 5 stories. All of them are good, but so far my favorites are "Broken Luna" and "Alpha Twins". I love how detailed the descriptions are with everything. AAA WWOOOOO!! How Alex (king) reassures his chosen mate and truly attempts to show her equality. And Layla gets Mated with both Twins.. only problem is there's no way to earn more points (after completing the tasks) to read more except the daily check in of only 1 point or to pay for it. Some of us only get paid once a month.

I very much enjoy the stories. They can be addictive! the 6 hour wait is a bit much. Yes, I can start another story. I have. Multiple. I've already made in app purchases as well to continue reading but have stopped. I feel we should be able to continuously gain points. you can gain free points after starting, but once you go through those, your done. We get one point a day, a free chapter 4 times a day if we're able to get to it 6 hrs later. More free points would gain more in app purchases.
