User reviews

Such Potential!

Love so many aspects of this app. I have lead my book club in using it for four years. Still so darn glitchy and inconsistent!

Has potential

This app has some great features, including the ability for each group member to be able to add their choice options for the next month’s book and the “like” button to allow the group to vote individually and anonymously. It is also convenient that when you set up the meeting time, you can opt for it to send your group members reminder emails, which is helpful considering everyone has other things going on.
I really wish there was a way to allow for a moderator or someone to oversee/manage it though, as I am the one in my group who sets it up every month. It is annoying that I have to tell the people in my group to go back and delete last months picks, and other things like that. It is also very glitchy, which can be quite frustrating at times. If they would fix these things the app would be much better.

Long overdue for an update

It seems like the app is long over due for an update. You can’t delete books off potential selections or club selection list. It’s also not letting me add any books to my personal bookshelf or queue. The app lags and you have to try to do the same action several times for it to maybe work.

Edit member list

The biggest problem our book club has is we can’t edit the members in the book club. People come and go and we just keep adding on. The old members still are listed. Can they be fixed?

Makes staying organized so much easier

Love this app. It is great for setting up meetings, book selections, and has an amazing number of book giveaways.
