Merci! Et bientôt d’autres fonctionnalités

Trop bien !!

Cette app et super, c’est une bonne idée. On peut découvrir des livres sur n’importe quels sujets. Les extraits sont de qualités et viennent de vrais livres. Ils ne sont pas fait par IA. Cela fait plaisir de voir que le téléphone ne sert pas qu’à scroller sur les réseaux sociaux. Très belle application.
