I’ve spent 150+ dollars to read one book and am no where near finished with it. So I started trying to see how long it takes to gain coins to be able to read. It’s been a week and a half and I still haven’t unlocked a chapter. Other than that, good grammar in the books and a nice selection. ### 3/5 — Wish I knew the name of it *2024-02-13* Most of these books are very good but the money you have payto read them are to him or you have to by them chapter by chapter ### 1/5 — Way overpriced *2024-01-02, version 1.0.0* Don’t even bother with this. If you want to read a full story it’ll cost more that $50. (6680 coins for a story, but 5000 coins are $49.99) Most of the books are on Amazon. It’s cheaper and you can keep them. ### 1/5 — Stolen books *2023-12-31, version 1.0.0* You get these books cheaper from the real authors! Many are free on wattpad, the rest cost less when purchased from real author! My books were stolen and placed on this app! Please, stop supporting thieves! ### 1/5 — your greed will be your downfall *2023-12-28* you people must be stupid and greedy. $350 to read a book???? that’s more than even the majority of americans make in a day! i just hope no one spends any money with you and the writers wise up to see there are other apps out there that will pay them and get their stories to more people which means more money for them. and they are also reasonable so more people are willing to pay for them. but over $300…. if you are paying that you too are stupid and please explain to me how you even have money like that to spend because it blows my mind how someone that stupid even made that much …. ### 1/5 — Hideously expensive reads that never end *2023-12-19* The books have interesting premises, but are unending and unedited. It’s very easy to lose track of how much money trying to finish a single title, and then it’s not even done hundreds of dollars later. And I mean it when I say hundreds. You can read a full series of edited professional writing through Kindle and then some for the same amount you would find yourself spending on the same single title that got advertised to you in the first place. They also charge for books they pirated. I’ve found one title that I spent $30 on Kindle for $7. I’m beyond glad that I got tired of paying every five chapters for that read and just looked it up. The rest of what I was reading was not worth how much I was spending. I could find similar self published on Kindle, or even better—free on Archive of Our Own. ### 1/5 — This App needs to be taken down!!! *2023-12-04* This app should be taken down!!! I am seeing more and more stolen books on this app that is available on Kindle Unlimited. Beware of ALL those book covers that don’t have an author on them. They are either stolen from KU or WattPad. I’m surprised Apple hasn’t done anything about this after I’ve reported several stolen books being pirated on this app. ### 1/5 — Plagiarized books *2023-11-16, version 1.0.0* I would rate a 0 if I could. Some of these books have been stolen. They can be read for free on the authors platforms. Don’t pay money for for plagiarized work that the author offers for free. ### 1/5 — What the actual …. *2023-10-27* It cost me almost $40 to read a book that ended up not even being finished. I could have purchased at least 4 well written completed books with that money. All that money for an extremely poorly written book with a fairly decent plot. I feel like I’ve lost my mind for even allowing myself to get roped into this obvious scam. If I hadn’t skipped several chapters it would have cost even more than the $40 I was stupid enough to spend. I am so disgusted with myself and with this app and with any author who thinks this is okay. I would leave an infinite number of negative stars. Just ewe. ### 1/5 — Duplicate chapters to steal from you. *2023-10-26, version 1.0.0* I thought I was going crazy reading chapters 2times but nope. $60 for 80ish chapters and some are duplicates costing 127 coins to reread? Not an ethical company. ### 3/5 — Books $$ with coins *2023-10-25* Takes a while to earn enough free coins to even read a book. The task to get free coins all require you to read. If you have no coins you can’t really read to get free ones. ### 1/5 — Not so good *2023-10-25* Don’t receive coins when bought ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Pirating Books *2025-01-31* I understand we all want to read but download your local library app! Their company is pirating books from indie authors without their permission which is just gross. These authors work so hard and it’s beyond wrong to steal something so personal to them. I hope you have a lawsuit coming! ### 1/5 — Stolen Books! *2025-01-31* Somebody tell me why this app is allowed to exist? They have stolen mine and other author’s books and are selling them. Don’t support this app. ### 1/5 — This site steals copyrighted stories *2024-05-22, version 1.0.0* Buyers beware : This site steals copyrighted stories and then sells them to unsuspecting people. The story Greyson and Chloe was written by the Wattpad author GroveltoHEA. Save your money. Please do not reward this thieving site. ### 1/5 — steals books *2024-03-07* Wish I could give zero stars. All these books are from hard working authors who have not given permission and are available free elsewhere. Don’t download !! ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2024-03-07, version 1.0.0* Don’t bother with this app. It won’t allow you to read an entire book without paying to read. And from what some of the other reviews are saying it costs a lot to read an entire book. ### 1/5 — Much to expensive *2024-02-14, version 1.0.0* I purchased $24.99 in coins and made it to Chapter 8. After that it costs roughly $5 for every 3 chapters of a book. While I love to read and have no issues paying for a good book, a werewolf romance novel isn’t a $100 book. At this point I’ve sunk over $60 into this book with over 144 chapters and could only get to chapter 31. Buyer beware. ### 1/5 — Totally expensive reading app *2024-02-07* Aside from monthly subscription the top up is expensive and for 9.99 you can only read several chapters. I cannot believe I spent more than $100 in less than 24hr. The novels are good until it gets to the point that they are just dragging the storyline such as repetitive sex, repetitive flashbackto the point of confusion. ### 1/5 — Double charges for coins *2024-01-20, version 1.0.0* Don’t spend money here. They’ll just double charge your card! ### 1/5 — Way to expensive *2024-01-17, version 1.0.0* It’s not worth it . ### 1/5 — It’s taking more money than what it says *2024-01-08* Every chapter costs $2-$3. That $10 package is really costing you $17. That $3 package is really taking $10. The books are good but I’m not going to spend $400 to finish a single story. There are better apps with the exact same stories. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The Alphas Baby *2023-10-25* Why have mates if even Alpha’s don’t trust their Goddess. Poor Victoria. Hopefully she gets a better second chance mate and Royal loses everything. ### 5/5 — The Alpha Baby *2023-10-25* Good so far Wish it wasn’t so expensive ### 5/5 — Great books *2023-10-25* I really enjoy the book I’m reading and can’t wait to find more once I finish Ex husband regrets ### 5/5 — Ok *2023-10-25* So far so good, would like to be able to earn free coins or chapters ### 5/5 — The I’m going on my walk *2023-10-25* I’m not a big fan but this is a really good one ### 5/5 — Loved *2023-10-25* Have enjoyed reading several books so far and have throughly enjoyed them bit on the expensive side ### 5/5 — His hunt for redemption *2023-10-25, version 1.0.0* Is a great book with a fabulous storyline ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2023-10-25, version 1.0.0* Easy to use and navigate ### 5/5 — 5 Stars *2023-10-25, version 1.0.0* 5* ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-10-25, version 1.0.0* I love the selection of books! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
