### 1/5 — would be awesome but doesn’t work :(

*2025-11-09*

can’t download any of the book files, so the app is functionally useless. such a shame to spend money on this! it looks like a wonderful app, just broken as of writing this review.

### 4/5 — Love the text and audio feature.

*2021-02-17*

In the app you are able to read the classics listed, highlight and take notes but while you read through the text, you also have the option to listen to audio at the same time while reading the text! This helps me to concentrate better as I don’t fatigue or become distracted by pronunciation of a name/word ect. I love read-along books, helps keep me on-track with studying, this feature alone makes the app well worth it for me.
One star off because once the app downloaded, I realized I also had to download each book but not only that It only downloads a chapter of a book at a time! Other than that, kind of annoying fact, I had trouble downloading at first, the app crashed a few times BUT that may have just been my internet connection because it did eventually download and I was on my way to read-along with audio!
