Ratings and reviews

I wanted to support Barnes and Noble, but this app has lots of problems. The page turning looks cool, but if you go back to the last page, when you flip forward it skips pages and you have to keep trying to get it back on track. The time estimates are off and didn't adjust. It would say that I had 30+ minutes left in a chapter that took 5 minutes. I couldn't highlight anything. The dictionary routes you to Google or Wikipedia. Overall not great, but I was able to read the book.

Update: With another update, the highlight cursor described in previous review I wrote is fixed. The app is great. I love it. Thank you for creating such a useful, so perfect book app! Great App! Edit: The app glitches. When you read a page, then switch, it skips pages, you flip back, it skips to some other pages, to restore the sequence of proper page flipping, you have to restart the app. That happens every few pages while you read. During a half hour read I restart the app like 5 times.

I've been stuck to this app for weeks reading several books from The Apothecary Diaries. I'm hooked! The app has been great! However, I just recently started having a huge issue with it. The app started crashing unexpectedly & isn't loading my new book anymore. I've tried everything to get it to work to no avail (clearing cache, uninstall/re-install, restarting phone...everything) Please, please, come out with new bug fixes soon as I would love to go back to my recent obsession. Please fix!
