Ratings and reviews

Features needed: Bookmarks - I'd like to save where I'm at. So, if I fall asleep during the sleep timer or before, I have a point of reference. Browsing 'available' only. Not getting an email every time I return a book, saying it's expired. Other than that, decent app.

If you've used Kindle, it's like a basic version. When reading books, it does the job, but don't expect much more. The biggest bug-bear though is trying to find new books. The library (both app and website) has New Releases and New to Library categories. But neither correctly sort books - titles from months ago frequently appear at the top of results. "New to old" sorting does not work.

Not a very easy interface to use. Search for titles and authors and you're met with not available - but I know it is, because I've gone through the genre section and found it there. The genre section is also difficult - organised in alphabetical order for thousands of books and audio books... haven't found a way to find a specific genre I'd like and no way to jump to the letter of the alphabet I want to get to. Frustrating.
