Any book
I miss punctuation. I want to see commas, not spaces.
Less Selection
Better than Libby for taking notes BUT finds less books than Libby when searching NYPL using same search terms within 1 minute.
Not enough fantasy books
Popular books aren’t available for months or a year. Not enough books on tape or missing sequences.

I love CloudLibrary!
Author Wrote about New Orleans but Never Stepped Foot Into New Orleans
I DNF’d this book so hard when I found out the author did NOT come to New Orleans but only wrote about it. It made a lot of sense about all the things she screwed up in the book. I’m from the New Orleans area and it is CLEAR as night and day that the author did no REAL research on the city or state when the author wrote their novel.
Case and point:
1. Wren was referred to as the county medical examiner. Louisiana does not have counties, we have parishes. She would be referred to as the parish medical examiner or the parish coroner. I at first thought it was a character decision, like they were from out of state, or they were trying to be annoying to Wren, but the character who referred to Wren as the county medical examiner name is Laroux which is as Louisiana or Cajun as you can get.
-Also just a page before he says this they mention The Times Picayune and Orleans Parish….you think she (the author) would know what a Parish was unless she just googled local New Orleans newspaper name.
2. Keeps referring to the antagonist (The Butcher) going down into the basement…New Orleans doesn’t have underground basements nor does any of the surrounding areas and I can’t see a serial killer kidnapping not one, but two people simultaneously, lugging up their bodies UP a flight of stairs and then DOWN a flight of stairs if the raised basement didn’t have outdoor access. I also did DNF this book, so I don’t thoroughly know the schematics of the house and if the author really meant underground or raised basement, but considering she doesn’t even know that New Orleans is below sea level I highly doubt she knew that tidbit.
3. It was mentioned about burying them 6 feet under when New Orleans cemeteries are above ground. Unless you want caskets popping up like daisies in a flood, raised cemeteries are the way to go in the area.
Nothing irritates me more than when an author doesn’t do proper research on a place they’re writing about, especially if they’ve never set foot into the city. It’s sloppy and lazy.

Match the titles to the books. Get some way of letting us know about the books with all the language! More Christian novels.
Love this app
Thank you for making it so easy to get books I like to read! So much better than having to buy books and then store them. I enjoy going to the library, but love being able to read on my iPad.
Anyway to mark which books I’ve already read?

I am an avid reader and read most days. The variety of books are wonderful. I will read anything except horror, a little mystery and a lot of humor.
Amo la app
Esta app es la mejor literalmente para leer. Con mi tarjeta de la librería (que saque gratis) puedo leer cualquier libro y escuchar audiolibros. No aparece anuncios y es facil de manejarr, puedes cambiar el fondo, la letra y el tamaño. En conclusión AMO ESTA APP 10/10
I❤️audio
This is great for FREE audio books!!
Needs More Features
Need a sleep timer to end of chapter & ability to review books
What a wonderful way to read books
I really enjoy being able to utilize CloudLibrary since I read so many books. It is really great to be able to use their save for later feature. And it’s really lovely that most of the time you could renew if you haven’t finished reading the book. I have also utilize the hold feature, and it usually always comes in fast faster than they say. I really appreciate this app.

Love this App
I love this app! In my opinion it is the best app ever created since it has helped me with my reading goals.
Hard to get books
I still feel we need to get back hoopla. That was the best!!!!!!!!
fix the timer and you’ll get a 5 star
be cool if you had a timer like apple books or audible. ya know, set the timer and it stays activated even if you have to pause it. do that, get 5 stars.
Makes life better & saves my time
Cloud Library: I can read without lugging a book. Gives me hours of life I lost going to/from libraries. Best sellers & favorite authors are available fast. Love it.
Wonderful Service
I use the app all the time!! I am a Senior Citizen and saving money is very important. I have read or listened to many, many books and have enjoyed them so much. Many of the newest books are available. But so are many that you wanted to read but just to busy with work, children, church and so many other things that time to just sit and read is not always available to you. But as a retired person I am having a great time enjoying the books that are available. I highly recommend getting this app here in our county or we’re ever you live. Enjoy, I am!!!

Love it
Everything about it is amazing But sometimes it has been hard to load books but otherwise it’s a lovely way to read books audiologically or thru just reading
Thank You!
The convenious to so many great books wins it for me. I also go to the local library for additional books I read during the day.
I use my IPad at night while my husband is sleeping next to me.
Generally have several books in play reading and listening.
Thanks so much! 🙏

Nothing in Passaic or Bergen County??
here are only a handful of libraries in this app. None are remotely near me. This is a very limited app. I don’t know what happened here.
