Ratings and reviews

I love this entire concept! it makes reading fun and silly while still holding a huge space for so many different people to come together over books. I mainly just struggle with the glitches in the app. it's all small stuff like the app shuts down when I first click on it, or I can't click on a button or selection sometimes. I also would love to be able to update my percentage progress as I read as that inspires me to keep going!

Good app, a bit buggy. I love the idea and community but it's not exactly a well tested or smooth app. In less than 10 minutes of use I've found that the current challenges' date reads as "undisplayable date" when signing up to it. The app crashes when you click the mail icon in the ask a community feature without filling anything in first. And there's no way to get to the supposed Google form to request new titles from here. Only the desktop site appears to do that

Poor Mobile Interface. Many boxes are cut off so you can't even see what you're typing or selecting. On top of that, the personality of the app comes across to me as very intense. It isn't easy to navigate either. Sadly sticking with GOODREADS. (sadly because Amazon owned) but I simply don't enjoy being on bookworm at all.
