I haven't bought books in years (cuz I only like e-books) but couldn't find a model I wanted to support. Never was a kindle guy (thank goodness). Being able to support local bookstores through this app is SO cool!! Also I love their support for as much non-DRM content as possible and hope they'll continue that fight. Thanks for helping me find hope and enjoyment in reading again. The only improvement I recommend are renaming the app to just "Bookshop" and fixing the app icon to be adaptive.

I really like what this app stands for, but it's so glitchy, it skips pages, sometimes I can't log in on either of my devices, it closes randomly. I've reinstalled it and it didn't really help. I also don't like that I can't have my book go to my Indie bookstore for pickup, but it's shipping only. They are a ways off from being able to compete with Amazon and Google books. Hopefully it will get better with time.

This app is ok, unless you have a spotty connection or you're offline, then the app generally freaks out, crashes, and prevents you from reading the books you've purchased. That's crazy - online / offline should make zero difference, and the fact that the app is so focused on being online makes it useless half the time. I can't believe they haven't fixed this when it's such a basic, simple thing.
