No Kindle Reader except Fire
There is no option to read on your Kindle E-reader unless you have a Fire. Libby is better for use with ereaders. Hopefully they will update this soon.
Go Tell It On The Mountain
This is a comment, not a review. An excellent reading of a masterwork.
Consistently removing me the list on reserved books
I will reserve a book and wait weeks and when it says I’m #1 in line for the next book suddenly it removes it completely and i have to start over. My notifications are on and i check it daily just in case and this happens 7/10 books i reserve. Reached out to my library and they said there’s nothing they can do. SO FRUSTRATING.
Can't navigate through a book
Can't go to another page except by swiping one page at a time! Especially frustrating when it's an 800+ page book!
great when works
great app when things are running smoothly but unfortunately i cannot actually download/read some books i have reserved once they became available due to an “unknown” error that says “could not place hold”. very disappointing as i have been waiting to read this book for a while.
Pete the Cat Five Little Pumpkins audio book
This is a good book. Lots of rhyming. I don’t like the set up of the audiobook. You cannot read along with the story. I guess it is good for “reading comprehension “ and listening skills, but it doesn’t work if you are an early reader, but you cannot follow the words.
A-
I love this app but I’ve found it is not cooperating when trying to download a book I reserved and waited for and finally appeared to become available after weeks.
