Free books! What can you say?

Enjoying the app so far. The books are mostly classics. Nice to have them at my finger tips. I’m an old soul and have read many classic books.

Between this app and Libby, I have all the books needed for free. Wish the collection was bigger but can’t complain.

Public domain books and finding them

The library need to be bigger. There are more books that have entered the public domain that should be loaded into here. And the tags need to be more broad. I have a hard time looking for books to look into.

Replace Scrolling with Actual Learning

I used this website in college for my English degree and, after earning said degree, promptly forgot about it. I rediscovered it trying to replace the lesser uses of screen time. The ease of this app is great. So glad I can learn anytime I want by popping on here. Thanks.
