Sometimes the wording in the stories are a little weird. My biggest complaint is if your gonna have us watch the videos fix it so we actually earn the minutes and let us be able to turn in when the app isn't working. That doesn't work either. ### 5/5 — Under mafia protection *2026-03-01, version 26.2.25* Was a very awesome book to read ### 4/5 — So far so good *2026-02-25, version 26.1.14* I am only a couple of chapters in but so far so good nice and steamy hot. These werewolf fantasy books I have read so far have been amazing. ### 5/5 — Many stories *2026-02-14, version 26.1.14* I enjoy the story items I have read so far. ### 5/5 — New Reader *2026-02-13, version 26.1.14* Newcomer, not sure yet ### 4/5 — Rate going in the wrong direction. *2026-02-05, version 26.1.14* Kind of mean to shorten the reward and lengthen the x amount of time reading or listening to the app needed for it. Plus the ads now keeping timing or something. Not fixed. ### 5/5 — New Reader *2026-02-05, version 26.1.14* Newcomer, not sure yet ### 5/5 — Si *2026-02-04, version 26.1.14* Y ### 5/5 — Misty *2026-01-30, version 26.1.14* Love the books ### 3/5 — Crashes *2026-01-25, version 25.12.15* It’s great that all you have to do is watch an ad to read the next chapter but this app crashes all the time and I end up watching 4-5 ads to get to the next chapter because it didn’t recognize I ready watched the 1 or 2 ads, super irritating. ### 5/5 — Books *2026-01-19, version 25.12.15* Love it!! ### 3/5 — Bedding the Ugly Luna *2026-01-15, version 25.12.15* After roughly 2 months, this is the first book I’ve begun with an author who has a command of the English language, sentence structure, thought sequence, etc. I’m only a few chapters in and what a relief to not struggle to follow a story line. Kudos to the author. I may just finish this one. ### 5/5 — Be warned highly addictive *2026-01-12, version 25.12.15* Excellent stories and brilliant characters. Very hard to put down. Enjoy 🤗😘 ### 4/5 — Pay to Read *2026-01-12, version 25.12.15* You still have to pay for unfettered access, but it’s much easier to get free pages/time. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Really *2026-03-25, version 26.2.25* They try to make themselves sound different, less expensive and more accessible than other book apps, but that’s a hook. What happens is you have to watch ads to earn minutes to read chapters. God forbid if you’re a slow reader. You’d be watching ads for days just to get through one book. Or you’d be paying exorbitant weekly or monthly charges because you couldn’t do it anymore. Regardless, it’s not worth it. The books they have may have some stories that might be worth reading but they don’t seem to be well edited for errors. This app is not worth your time. ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2026-03-19, version 26.2.25* App keeps spontaneously closing. ### 1/5 — Good concept, terrible execution. *2026-02-06, version 26.1.14* So far it does seem to let me read for free, you watch an ad that gives you 5 minutes reading time, and then you do actually seem to have the 5 minutes to read. As a fast reader it’s perfect. Except the app doesn’t stay open for longer than 30s before it crashes. So not only will you be opening again and scrolling to your spot repeatedly but it doesn’t stay open long enough to actually watch the ad for more time once you’ve used your introductory 20mins. Unless they fix that i unfortunately would say not worth your time. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-02-03, version 26.1.14* It says you can read for free, what it really means is that it offers for you to pay and then it offers 5 minutes of free to read after you watch 4 different ads. And on top of those ads you have to push 4 times on each ad that you don’t want to download load it. ### 1/5 — Bonus Spin *2026-01-16, version 25.12.15* Can get my bonus doing the app freezes and kicks me out everytime i try for three days now ### 1/5 — The worst.. hate it *2025-12-19, version 25.12.5* This app can’t have a 4.8 rating with so many people telling the truth about not liking it.. it’s like the rest of them half decent books and then they just keep you doing extra things for you to be able to read a book or a few chapters. Like collecting coins from you downloading a game or watching so many ads/ videos its preposterous. It’s just a waste of time and money because they want you to pay for a subscription..like having to pay for it. It’s really just a waste of time. And then the ad for the app is a complete lie. I should sue you all for false advertisement. ### 1/5 — Misleading *2025-12-14, version 25.12.5* Downloaded because it was advertised as free books and audios. Minutes ran out in before end of first chapter. False adds. ### 1/5 — Review *2025-11-30, version 25.11.13* I keep getting this add and it low-key making me mad ### 1/5 — Misleading *2025-11-12, version 25.9.26* When advertising the app they just keep saying that it's free no adds and that you don't have to pay and yet you don't get to read a full chapter without running out of minutes and then you have to pay to get minutes.. you guys are false advertising i was excited to try the app but now i'm just going to delete it. I would give you zero stars but it won't let me. ### 1/5 — Viruses *2025-09-20, version 25.9.3* This app is full of viruses every time I read the story I was reading it would make a noise and then it would open a page and say my phone was infected with the viruses so please be aware ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I love this app *2026-08-12, version 26.7.16* GUYS TRUST ME WHEN I SAY THE APP IS THE BEST APP EVER TO READ ### 5/5 — I love this app *2026-06-14, version 26.6.2* GUYS TRUST ME WHEN I SAY THE APP IS THE BEST APP EVER TO READ ### 5/5 — App *2026-06-12, version 26.6.2* Very good app except for the bugs that keeps on crashing it.
