Ratings and reviews

This app is very very confusing. No where at all so I see a list of books to choose from....I tried the search...got nothing at all. I see no where to choose a book or a genre. If you're going to have an app where people are supposed to be able to choose a book to read ...perhaps SOME instruction as to how to continue or how to find a list of books to choose would be helpful!! Every single icon or button or whatever you call them...only took me to a blank page. NO WHERE is there ANY instruction

Everything looks amazing. It's by far the prettiest ereader I've ever used. But there are a couple of hindering issues with this app. If I am reading and my device goes to sleep, it can't show me any of my books after I open it. I have to open and close the app repeatedly to get my books back. Even re scanning doesn't work. Disabling auto rotate doesnt work and if I accidentally turn to the side, it loses my place completely.

This is a really great app! It supports lots of book formats and transitions smoothly into the text to speech mode. I love being able to switch quickly and easily between text and audio. The voices are very good with lots of expression. The app is definitly a 5/5 most of the time. But it has a bad habit of compleatly crashing after about every 3rd update. And when it crashes, not even reinstalling it helps.
