User reviews

Buy your books here!!

Support your choice of local bookstore while you buy books online. Great service and prices. Do it!!!

Bookshop rocks!

Love the ebooks, quick checkout.

Highlighting is so difficult.

It’s impossible to highlight a sentence that ends on the next page. I tried for about 10 minutes. How is such a simple function so difficult to do in this app??

Clunky, glitchy, doesn’t even sync

I want to support my local independent bookstore, including ebook purchases. But this app is not great. Not syncing between devices, failed downloads, and the app doesn’t even seem to realize the app itself is already open so tries to prompt reading via browser. Overall, disappointing.

Malfunctioning highlighting

I like bookshop - especially like its support of local book shops. Unfortunately, I mainly read ebooks because I simply cannot store a large quantity of hard copy books. I will buy a hard copy if I think it is one I will use multiple times, or is one I can give to someone after I have read it. I read mainly nonfiction & use highlights A LOT. Often re-read a book just by reading the highlights. This function works poorly in bookshop app. Kindle is way better & I would return to kindle except I am pretty committed to NOT using Amazon.
