Thank you!!​ ### 5/5 — Interesting app  ‍ *2023-06-30* It took me a bit to figure out how the bricks worked but I have read 3 books and enjoyed all of them. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2023-06-29* Not just one style of romance but many! The app is easy to use and the stories always pay off with keeping me hooked.   ‍ ‍ ### 5/5 — Interesting stories    ‌ *2023-06-28* Not thrilled about the amount of bricks I have to use but the stories are great and it’s a handy escape when you’re stuck waiting for something!    ‍ ### 5/5 — Addictive‍ *2023-06-28* Some of the stories are addicting .. I just keep running out of bricks and wait for the bonus .. I’m currently reading 4 at a time.. but they are all so yummy!! ### 5/5 — If you want a great romance book to read *2023-06-28* Must start reading once rejected twice desired by ambernique leggett!! So good!   ​  ‍ ### 5/5 — bricks needed to read, good content‍      ‌ *2023-06-28* Basically you can only read a little each day or cough up serious bricks. bricks can bought with money or by completing tasks. Usually there’s not enough daily tasks to read more than a few chapters for free. If you’re like me and like to knock out a book each day, be prepared to pay or skip this app. ### 5/5 — Happy I found this app *2023-05-30* It’s only been a couple weeks since I started reading these stories, but I am very pleased with the way the reader can earn bricks, use coupons, and read chapters by watching ads. Thank you for these features. One request . . . Please have your authors pay more attention to accuracy of translation - especially pronoun usage. It makes it a struggle to read some of the stories. Overall, I am looking forward to time spent using this app. ### 2/5 — unacceprable frequency of translation errors *2023-05-02* I gave up trying to read several stories because it was too much of a struggle trying to understand the author's words. Please make sure that the English pronouns : he, his, him, her, she and hers are used correctly. ### 2/5 — How to use the bonus bricks? *2022-07-04* I love the app but as a french I still don’t get how to use the bonus bricks. Can you please help me ! ### 5/5 — Love it *2022-06-29, version 1.2.713* Love the app like that I can earn free bricks ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Poor *2026-02-05, version 1.2.731* The translation was decent, and I even got the “paid” version so I could have unlimited chapters on the novel I was reading. However, once I hit a certain chapter, paragraphs would repeat themselves, with slightly different wording, and the final few paragraphs of the chapter were missing (which I found out when looking at other translations). How trash does an app have to be where there is missing content every other chapter. ### 1/5 — Scammers!!! Cheaters!!! *2023-07-16* This app is the only app I’ve come across where the books have set extra conditions on opening new chapters! They reel you in by giving you 50% extra bonus bricks/points when you make your first purchase however the bonus just sits there pretty much useless and will expire soon!!! Most of the books have conditions on them that you can only use purchased bricks/points to open the new chapters! I have yet to come across a good book that you can use the bonus bricks/points on! I have come across a couple of books but the grammar on those books is atrocious hence why I believe they allow the use of those bonus bricks/points!!! I have already spent $60 on this app and feel absolutely cheated and scammed!!!!! ### 1/5 — Terrible *2022-09-26, version 1.2.713* Been with them since June 2022 and subscription for a year. However their yearly subscription only lasts 3 months. Dont subscribe. They are cheaters. I want my money back. 😣😣 ### 1/5 — É fraude!!! *2022-01-28* Em sua descrição especificamente diz que publicam novelas de qualidade, que as traduções são feitas por pessoas e não pela MTL, isto me encorajou a baixar a app, quis ler um romance chinês e tive que pagar R$ 44,90 para poder desbloquear todos os capítulos, e todo o romance é uma Traduccion MTL, nem sequer fizeram um esforço para editá-la a um minimo compreensível, algumas orações simplesmente não têm sentido, a cada momento os nomes pessoais e pronomes mudam fazendo que seja em extremo difícil seguir o desenvolvimento da história. São vigaristas, afirmam ter uma qualidade que nem sequer se esforçam por alcançar. ### 1/5 — Unable to use Bonus Bricks *2022-01-01, version 1.2.640* You get bonus bricks but most novels in this app won’t let you use them because the publisher refuses to let you use bonus bricks to read the novel. You can only use purchased bricks. ### 1/5 — Coins *2021-07-27, version 1.2.410* I purchased 1000 coins for 9.99 and haven’t received them!!! Do not purchase !!!! ### 1/5 — Cheaters .. Moneyminded *2021-07-10* I had bought coins for this app .. to read a novel more than 2500 inr I had spent assuming that I would be able to read the novel .. But they cheat people bcaz then they charge around 80-100 coins per chapters .. it means by paying this much amount also I can read just few chapters not the complete novel.. Try fixing a price for the novel instead of taking per chapter price .. This is called cheating your customers .. ### 1/5 — Hello Ex *2021-05-21, version 1.2.274* Said they had this book, not there! So disappointing! ### 1/5 — Wrong titles *2021-03-31, version 1.2.218* I have looked at a few of your books and it seems like half of them aren’t even the right books. You will have a book title but have a completely different story ### 1/5 — Do SOMETHING! *2021-03-18, version 1.2.182* I’ve been waiting MONTHS! You took ‘Divine Doctor: Daughter of the First Wife’ when it got licensed but now what? It’s been MONTHS! We were getting weekly updates but now that it’s in your hands you’ve done nothing but steal peoples money. Either make the updates or give it back to the small translator groups who actual do it and deserve our support 🤬 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Kidnapped by mate *2026-07-13, version 1.2.731* Best book ever ### 5/5 — Not working *2024-01-17, version 1.2.731* It was a brilliant app until apple’s update last night and it stopped working 🥲🥲🥲 Please fix this 🙏🏼🙏🏼 ### 5/5 — user's wallet friendly *2023-08-22* I REALLY appreciate the 20 free-with-ads chapters each day plus earning bricks on the check-in page. Thank you😁 ### 5/5 — I love this app *2023-07-10, version 1.2.731* I love this app ### 5/5 — Amazing reads    ‍ *2023-07-10* This app has really interesting books to read , and I really like it , it has ALOT of potential. ‍​ ### 5/5 — Get this App ​ *2023-07-07* I love this app and the books on here are great I use this app everyday because I like to read you will not be disappointed!!‌    ‌ ### 5/5 — Has some MUST reads!! ​ ‌‌ *2023-07-04* Love this app! It has some serious reads for anyone who loves fantasy and fiction books.    ‌    ‍ ### 5/5 — Great app ‌     ‌ *2023-07-04* The rewards are great but they do not give you enough bricks and the wait time for the chapters to be unlocked is very long... but the books are very good!!!!❤️ i just wish they would give you more bricks‌  ‍‍ ### 5/5 — Fun stories and lots of different choices!‌  ‍  ‍ *2023-07-03* I have enjoyed reading the stories so far. There appears to be a lot to choose from too! ### 5/5 — Really good *2023-07-02* Really enjoy this app as I have read a few books on here, i enjoy that they are written by everyday people but sometimes there is a lot of spelling mistakes. Someone should proof read the stories to make sure they’re correct. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
