Pretty much everything under the Explore tab (trending and upcoming) gives an error and fails to load any content.

Needs Updates

This is so close to perfect! It just needs tweaking.

I use this app for the widget function to show my book highlights - which is a wonderful option for big readers. But the text size needs to adapt to fit the widget box size! Currently it only fits about 15 words before cutting off - nothing fits and it defeats the purpose.

Response from developer

Thank you for the review! This has been addressed in version 1.1. I hope you’ll like it!

Awesome companion app to the Hardcover app (Goodreads replacement with free API)

See title! Also, I’d like to include a couple of feature requests:

It would be cool if when u click on the quote widget, it would link to the journal entry on the hardcover app. Also, multiple widgets all having different quotes, or just not all being the same quote, would be sweet!
