Not happy

I am not happy, the chapters are way to expensive. I am going to delete this app, if they can bother giving the amount that is need to read a chapter. I will not bother to use the app. I wanted to give this app, zero stars.

Money hungry

These are SO EXPENsIVE!!! I spent over $40 and didn’t even get halfway through a book and had to call it quits. It’s a good story but I spend 14.95 for an audible credit for higher profile authors with longer and more detailed story telling . It’s ridiculous.

Fraudulent

Says you need 87 coins to unlock a chapter
So you buy coins then as you go to read the chapter it now says the price is 199 to read the same chapter
It’s costs a fortune and the chapters have been written in a way to drag out content, each paragraph at the start of the chapters was repetitive and uses a template to form chapters
It’s all scam
Then when you contact them you get no correspondence
Don’t get it

FRAUDULENT

I purchased 2 coins packs so I could read this book I enjoyed however, one day I got on to read and that book was gone from my library. There was no record in my history and I couldn’t search for it.

I tried to contact them but cannot get in contact with anyone even though they have a “contact us”!

I happened to see a review on their Facebook page that the actual Author has reported them because they stole her book without permission and were making us purchase coins (or wait I’d you’re patient) to read each chapter. The author has all chapters up to read for free on a website.

I am not happy, they made me work to read a book that is up for free and I’m sure the author needs compensation for their thievery!

Am very disappointed, this app seemed to be a good place to read books. I shouldn’t surprised every app forces you to pay money and rip people off

Plagiarism

This website has a plagiarized book on it and is currently not adhering to the original author yo take it down. It’s unfortunate that I fell fur this scam and spent so much money on this site for them to not admit their wrong in this situation and help the original author. I’m not herring my money back either or credit but to treat the original author like a stain and ignore her is completely wrong.

Steals other authors books

I don’t know if the developers are also managing the app and contents, but this app steals work from other sites. My book was copied, renamed, and published here without my permission. I will be suing if it’s not removed.

Way too expensive.

200 coins per chapter. It will cost over $100 to read one book.

Whats Read

Totally overpriced. I spent $10 to read only 5 chapters. There is over 54 chapters in book 1. That is over $100 to read 1 book- it is a 3 book series. There is about 150 chapters total. That’s like $300 to read it all. I just can’t, seriously can’t believe it. Now I am sad and can’t finish something that I started. 200 points for each chapter when I am use to using about 70 - this is utterly ridiculous. Deleting app now
