  • ??

    Can’t find any Alice oseman books.
  • Love it. 👍

    Great selection and flawless execution

    Developer Response

    Thanks! Why only four stars then? 😉 💜
  • Catalog is lacking, couldn’t find anything on my reading list

    Pricing and app seems great but there’s unfortunately just not much I want to read available on the platform.

    Developer Response

    Hi there. We're really sorry to hear that you didn't find anything you were looking for. We're focused primarily on the UK market and haven't made the progress we would like to have made with US publishers. US publishers seem to ring fence US content so they can charge a premium for it and they resist innovations like our x-book. That said, we are always working to add more (global) content to the platform and hope to have more for you soon! 💜
