Why not free?
This app seemed like so much fun. Really sad to have downloaded it and seen you HAVE to pay a sub to even use basic features.
Subscription
Looks like a cool app but I’m not paying a subscription just to use the app I will stick to Goodreads
NOT FREE
This app will let you go through a string of questions and before it will let you actually use it, you encounter a paywall. $9.99 a month, $79.99 a year “discounted” to $38.99, or a lifetime membership of $99.99 and an offer of a 3 free day trial. I hate apps like this. Just tell me in the download price it is $100 one time purchase or something. I don’t know why I was led to believe this was a free app. I will not be doing a 3 day trail just to have to come back in a few days(which you hope I will forget) or get charged. I am so tired of every app needing a subscription. Ridiculous. Normal people can’t afford to pay for 20-100 subscriptions. That’s why people look at people who say they have Netflix or another service with bafflement and disgust. Everyone I know has gotten rid of all their subscription services because it has gotten out of hand.

Garbage
Asks for a review before you even get into the app, and then makes you either pay or get the free trial to use the app at all. If you don’t do either of those things, then you just set up your info in the app for nothing
Quite an enjoyable experience
So I’m going to write a review now so I don’t forget to, and I’ll update my review as I use the app more as it’s only been a few days.
So far I really like it. I love having the bookshelf and being able to customize it. I’ve had some issues with the sorting where I sort by authors last name and some books won’t group together but it’s really no biggie.
I think my main complaint is the discover section, which I was most excited for. I love that it tells me what book I’ve already read that the suggested book is similar to, but the description of the book doesn’t help much. Also, it just likes to show me the same books over and over which was disappointing.
Other than that, I find it’s been motivating me to read a lot more :) it’s very user friendly and aesthetically pleasing as well.
