I love this app bc the books are free, and i loved the first two books I read, "Once upon a broken heart," and "The Ballad of Never After." But I hated that I spent most nights and days reading. Yeah, no good for my health, & obviously, I have my own opinions about these books on how they ended, but it was a good ending, so I shouldn't hate. SO if you're going to read any books, please take your time because I haven't been sleeping well at all, and I probably won't learn from my mistake 😅

This app sucks. I could find a lot of random books but not the one I was looking for ADD MORE BOOKS

I've had this app for about 3 years now and, for the most part, it's been pretty good but around 2 months ago it stopped working and wont let me download the books anymore. Very frustrating.
