Amazing App!

Clean, Simple, Intuitive. Really like the interface. Listen or Read. One of the best micro-learning book summary apps I’ve tried. Well Done!

Summaries are good

Promising app, good summaries with more detail than Headway but lacks common features like highlighting and spaced repetition.
