Ratings and reviews

Update 11/05/2020- App is now much more responsive which is nice so +1 star. I understand being able to choose the cover, but I think that belongs in a different interface. For example if I want to add a lot of books by an author and search that author, I frequently end up double adding a book. Additionally it's frustrating to add all of the books in a series since you keep having to scroll past duplicates that you are unsure of wether or not you have added.

Id love if we could share pics. We dont know what room to chat in, first book or last book when talking about a series. Can they have their own channel? Multiple copies of one book is kind of confusing but good they all go to the same channel. I think Moderators would be a good idea too. They could run a series channel, clean up extra book copies, and make sure pics are appropriate. The feed shouldnt refresh when I click an item and add it. You have to scroll all the way back to where you were.❤

EDIT: After contacting support, who were very responsive and helpful, my issue seems to have been fixed. Really like how easy it is to use this app, and how quickly you can get talking to people about the books you're enjoying (or not!). ORIGINAL: Love the app, but my library tab appears to not be working properly. Despite me adding books to 'read' and 'currently reading', my library page displays as empty. I have emailed support and will update my review here when issue is fixed.
