40 chapters into a 50 chapter story which is now subscribers only.... Some stories have premium chapters which you need points to unlock but it doesn't tell you before you start and you can't skip that chapter. Edit: in response to the dev's reply this was a free download book that you have changed to subscription only 💩 Update: would change my review to 0 stars if I could. Was reading a new story that had a 6 hour wait per chapter. It is now up to a 26hr/chapter and I'm not even halfway...
I did give this 4 stars originally and then I got a few chapters in and it said I had to pay. I'm very disappointed! I have gotten rid of the app.
I was really liking the book I was reading. I just wish there was away I could just watch ads to keep reading. poor people can't always afford $6 a month. I sure wish I could. EDIT: Well I got the $6, but it wants me to pay for the full year up front. I have already gained all my free points. What know? EDIT: JUST DELETED THE APP. SO UNCALLED FOR! I WILL READ BOOKS ELSEWHERE!
App added Harlequin & app since 50% or less of usefulness now...
it's okey but it's a little slow. but I love the fact that it has free chapters unlock after few hours
its not free,u need to pay after reading 2 chapters
the chapters for free vs what they cost isn't worth it.
Great books just wish you could earn points for chapters easier and more than 1.
books are entertaining but the adds and point system is frustrating
Nice reading app, but it's too expensive
would be much better read if not having to use or by points. not liking that at all. other apps use 1 to 3 ads to open each chapter and screenshot would be helpful when errors are found so the author can correct.
