I LOVE this reading app! It's very easy and asthetic to use. I'm just super disappointed with a recent problem where I can't turn up the reading speed on audiobooks without the app giving me an error message saying that there's a problem with my internet connection--even though I have full bars. Otherwise, it's an awesome way to check out ebooks and read.

Great app that let's you access your kids local school library. 2 of my kids like listening to audiobooks and this is user friendly and a great second option when putting books on hold. My only issue is I wish you could have more than 3 holds at a time. Super frustrating when you have more than one book with a really long wait time. And it won't continue playing after I close the app. Overdrive will still play even after I close it, but this one won't. It has to hang out in the background.

Can we just take a moment to think that a publicly funded program made this app? Sure it's not perfect, but when you get it running, it sure does run. You can search from multiple local libraries at once, interact with your audiobook as a notification, have multiple people or locations on one card (*cough* Netflix) and so much more. I feel like the app really is intuitive and remembers me each time I use it. It's certainly my go to library app and I will miss it after I leave high school. Edited

The app was great at first, I was able to find good books, wait wasn't that long, and it has audio books as well. Which I actually didn't expect at first. But then everything started to take 20 minutes to load INTO the app, I can't access the books I want because of the wait. And then when it finally loads, the app crashes and I can't load back in for another 20 minutes. I'm assuming its a glitch so I won't rate it low or anything. I hope it gets fixed soon though.

2 things. 1 let me read Catching Fire from the hunger games series cause I can't do that. Second let me download books so I can read them without connection otherwise fine.
