HOW WE DO IT

All of our writers are bookworms and bibliophiles. Hence, they don’t mind reading the books several times while turning them into book summaries. Moreover, they are well versed in breaking down multifaceted chronicles and complex concepts in an easily digestible manner, at the same time entirely relevant to the original book, and to your personal growth and professional development!
Each book summary or microbook as we like to call it, is written in a way that they can be read and listened to entirely independently of the book they summarize. In other words, they are not just a haphazard list of key insights and highlights, but meaningful, self-sufficient accounts connecting the ideas in question in engrossing narratives by way of arguments, anecdotes and original quotes.

Sometimes the app freeze. Most books are between 14 mins to 20 mins. The summary is so so. They didn't get the main point. Not too many selections. They said they added 10 books per week, but there is no way you can know it. I can only see probably 40 or 50 books available. I have a technical problem. I sent them an email, but they never replied to me back. They said you can search for a title if it's not there then I can submit a title and amazon URL. URL is optional, but it's not. The app required you to have Amazon URL. You can't copy and paste. When I typed the whole URL. The system still doesn't accept it, so you can't really submit any title at all. I saw other users have the same problem, but nothing fix.
