Ratings and reviews

This is the best reader available. Far superior to Kindle and Nook. The Blitz Mode, which enables speed reading, has been an absolute game changer in how quickly I can cruise through books in a limited amount of time. a bunch of other features as well, which I haven't checked out yet.

Best collection of public domain works you'll find! Very easy to search titles and get what you're looking for. Audiobooks and epubs are excellent!

I love this app, it's like going to the library at home. and the fact I can also upload my own books makes it so much easier to have all my books in one space
