1/5Disappointed
The story I was reading was great through around chapter 200 and then it just started that chapter on repeat. Gone through chapter 280 and it still hasn’t updated to a new chapter to read. So disappointing. Glad I’ve gone through watching ads for the story because otherwise paying for it would have been highway robbery.

3/5Ads
I’m viewing more ads than I’m actually reading. Like seriously, every 1 or 2 pages there’s a ad and it’s not to say it’s 30s long, noooo, it’s a whole min long or probably more. I get you need to advertise the ads, but people are coming here to read not to constantly be seeing ads more than they can actually read.

5/5Reading
This app is one of the best apps out there for free reading. The ads are not anything compared to other reading apps, the amount of time on an ad is nothing and if you want to read longer, you can watch a minute and a half ad in read for 15 minutes I would highly recommend getting this app if you’d like to read and not have to pay an enormous amount for an app.

2/5Not user friendly at all!
The ongoing stories are fairly good, though they seem to be AI generated and include serious errors, such as placing Kyoto (Japan) in China. Character names get changed on a regular basis. But my big gripe is that it kicks me out of the stories I’m reading with no way to either go back or access the library. Some stories seem to be frozen mid-story, with no ending in sight. A very brief tutorial or FYI file to say how to get this to work properly would go a long way to fix the ‘can’t go back or access library’ problems. But even that won’t help the formula plots.

1/5The Contract Luna
I was enjoying the story even though it had many misspelled words and fragmented sentences. The story was good. However, I got right about the middle part of the story and BOOM the book is no where to be found. I’m fed up with these apps that get you hooked on a story and the it’s gone or they want a kings ransom to read it. I’m deleting this app and all the others like it. I will stick with AUDIBLE. At least I will be able to finish the story!
