Email does not exist. DO NOT SUPPORT. ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-07-27* This app is a scam they have no way to cancel subscription they do not respond to emails, and shortly after someone tried to hack my accounts ### 1/5 — Awful App *2026-07-22* Cancelling your account does not cancel your subscription - thieves here. ### 1/5 — Books can’t even use the discount *2026-07-18* The app just keep circling an won’t let me use any discounts ### 1/5 — No reply *2026-07-09* Did the subscription and wanted to cancel sent them a request to cancel after a day of having it and haven’t heard back but they took out the next week money. Trying to get it cancelled still before they try again ### 1/5 — Bad app *2026-07-07* I have tried to cancel my account for 3 weeks. They kept charging me I emailed and requested a cancellation through the app. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-07-05* Doesn’t answer and keeps charging despite cancellation request ### 1/5 — Avoid this app! *2026-07-03* Don’t bother installing this app. I requested to cancel by subscription via email before the trial period ended and was still charged. I sent another email again requesting my subscription be canceled with no response. ### 1/5 — Lies *2026-06-22* How can they state that ALL BOOKS ARE FREE? Believe me it’s not. And believe me I reluctantly gave the one star. ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-06-18* I have requested a cancellation multiple times. I accidentally made a subscription then realized it was weekly so I immediately canceled it. They have now charged me 4 separate times since the initial cancellation. ### 1/5 — Just don’t ~ *2026-06-17* I subscribed May 19 for 0.99 for 1 week. Term’s cancellation available up to 24 hours before renewal. I cancelled May 22 … I was charged 2x after USD 14.99 each time. I have opened a case with PayPal in May and have yet to see a refund. To me that marks this Company as untrustworthy. Or should’ve been resolved by now but instead I have to send more info. These are unauthorized transactions. SO DONT SUBSCRIBE TILL YOU SEE MORE POSITIVE FEED BACK IN CLIENT ISSUES ### 1/5 — Horrible. Don’t bother. *2026-06-14* Besides the cost seemed too high. It is extremely difficult to get the subscription canceled. Do not purchase on this app. It’s a scam ### 1/5 — Fake reviews and nonresponsive team to cancel subscription *2026-06-06* Pretty easy to tell that the 5-stars reviews are fake and bought. They are not being responsive. I’ve requested to cancel over a week ago and have not received a response. This is ridiculous as the subscription is weekly so I need a quick response from them to stop the next charge. I was already charged for the new week. ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2026-06-06* Does not allow you to collect reward points to unlock chapter must pay to read. Better to download other apps ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Charged after email for cancellation *2026-08-21* I purchased the offer for the week and on the same day submitted a cancellation request via email to them but no they didn’t cancel they took my money a week later. ### 1/5 — Do not use *2026-08-16* This app is not great. It is impossible to cancel a subscription if you accidentally subscribe and they do not respond to emails or communication. Very fraudulent app. ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-08-13* Dont purchase anything. You cant cancel it and they will charge credit card……. ### 1/5 — Great stories but have to subscribe to continue reading *2026-08-13* I have started some great stories but I am not happy with the fact that after 3 or 4 chapters you have to pay to finish reading. I am tired of finding apps that have great stories to find out they are money hungry just to finish a book. 😪 it’s always the same ### 1/5 — Misleading *2026-08-11* Difficult to cancel and charges additionally within 24hrs of subscribing ### 1/5 — Scam Alert *2026-08-11* Once you purchase a coin on special that’s it’s very very cheap they will keep your credit card detail and will charging you even you can’t the subscription or one time coin top up . The email don’t exist and no one will reply to you even you message them on the app ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-08-11* If I could give this zero stars I would. Because they make it where if you buy a subscription you can NOT cancel it. So when you buy the discount one and you want to end it before it jumps to the ridiculous full price that is way too expensive you can’t and you get charged for it. That’s a mess and very unfair. Bad business practices. ### 1/5 — Ridiculous! *2026-08-09* I have requested that my account be canceled multiple times and nothing. They keep billing me for an account I do not like or use! Customer service does not help and ignores messages. ### 1/5 — Cancel subscription *2026-08-07* I would rate as a 0 if I could. You have to purchase a subscription if you want to read the books I thought I would give it a try for a week as on a special offer. But after the first couple of chapters I decided to cancel it. Thought it was straight forward through the app. They have not cancelled the subscription price has gone which I can’t afford and still trying to cancel 11 weeks down the line. This site is a scam. ### 1/5 — DO NOT SUBSCRIBE!!! *2026-08-05* I’ve tried multiple times to cancel the subcription my child made I’ve contacted all the emails they don’t work. I even tried to call them the number doesn’t work. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE they don’t cancel subscriptions until after they take a weekly payment which isn’t in the contract they send for the trial ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fast, Responsive, and Lets Me Focus on Reading *2026-08-21* No major complaints from me.
