Google Play Books is making it easier for you to never get lost again. Jump back in with a recap of what you’ve read so far by tapping “Catch me up”, or highlight a passage to ask questions, diving deeper into your learning with explanations about themes, context or characters – all while staying immersed in your book.

To start using Book insights, highlight any text within one of the books featured here, or open the feature from the top navigation bar in the Play Books Android app or the web reader. You can also visit the Help Center to learn more.

Need clarity about your assigned reading without having to leave the page? With Book insights, you can ask for easy explanations about themes, contexts, and characters, among many other things.

Book insights is designed to give spoiler-free answers. It only references the text up to your current reading position. Generative AI is experimental and may make mistakes.

Book insights can help you dive deeper into your learning without breaking your reading flow. You can even keep the conversation going with suggested follow-up questions if your thirst for knowledge hasn’t been satiated yet.
