Constantly uninstalling my books and then trying to redownload never works on data. Downloaded my book before going to bed, left first thing this morning for a big trip. Open it on the train and it’s ALREADY been uninstalled. Absolutely terrible I have more than enough space, so no reason for it to do this.

Where are the books

It’s a great app for reading. It would be great if there is an option allows to add words to a created dictionary in the app. The reason to give 2 star is to let the developer pick up my comment.
