Doesn’t work… nothing happens when you click the Scan Quote button. Kind of useless without this.

Literary lifesaver

This app is a dream come true for me, and brilliantly anticipates an avid commonplacer’s every whim and necessity. I’m a writer by trade, and I build my books with extensive reading and research. I commonplace my way through bookshelves of history. And this app is the one I’d design if I had a magic wand for perfection. Thank you, CP.

Engaging Reading App

This app has really rekindled my interest in reading. I am not only able to share the interesting quotes I have read but I have also found many great books that I’ve started to read. Being able to record and share insightful books and quotes with commentary is a game changer.

Simply Revolutionary

I have added several books to my reading list since downloading this app. By using the discover tab I was able to explore trending quotes that have peaked my interest!

changed the quote game forever

I am not the biggest reader, but this app has improved my literacy 10 fold. I went from just twiddling my thumbs in the bathroom to the Prisoner of Azkaban in my lap while I let one loose. I can’t emphasize how much more engaged into books I have been since this app was released. It changed my life, really!!
