## BorrowBox Reviews in New Zealand

### ***** "Love it!!!"
Many, many thanks for borrow box.
It was a life saver through Covid, even more variety since.
Please keep it up!

### ***-- "You don’t care do you?"
Despite having years of “updates” this app still doesn’t have system dark mode and often opens to the loan page. It’s not nice to open it in the middle of the night and be blinded by that bright and unnecessary green screen. How does that help me resume reading? Maybe it allows you to check that you aren’t owed any money?
-- iPaddling, 2024-10-12

### ***** "Excellent"
Seamless excellent service can’t recommend this enough the audio books are great for mental health and wellbeing 
Thanks so much for making this available
-- EmKU1704, 2024-10-10

### ***** "So grateful to have this service."
I have been ill for quite some time and have been much reliant on Borrowbox Audiobooks especially. They have given me much joy when I could do little else. There is a fabulous selection of material.
-- Lauraine Parkinson, 2024-09-28

### ***** "Good!"
So cool😇 I get to listen to books📚👍🏻
-- AAKJones1, 2024-09-27

### ***-- "Mrs"
I find BorrowBox quite hard to navigate and find the kind of books that interest me or look for a particular book. Sometimes the last line of a page disappears so you can miss important details.
Otherwise I enjoy the opportunity to read ebooks.
-- Essmacd, 2024-09-07

### ***** "I’m Quinn"
Hi I’m really into the app 📱💕 I really like the app because I love to read 📚😃
-- Quinny bin, 2024-09-07

### ***** "Wwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww"

-- Hazelecc, 2024-06-19

### ****- "Review"
It is good but more titles for 9-14 years old.
-- kotlc 5, 2024-05-31

### ***** "Best home library ever"
I’m a borrow box user from very early on and have been very happy indeed. 
Unlike my husband who has to find a car park to visit the library I do it all from the comfort of home. 
My only desire would be to be reminded if I’d already read the book and in which year.  I have go through so many that it takes a while to read the list when the book sounds vaguely familiar.
-- Liz NZ, 2024-05-25

### ***** "Brilliant"
This is a fabulous application, enabling the reading books before purchase of the Book for my personal library enabling further rereads, very much appreciated BorrowBox, thank you :-)
-- content colourer, 2024-05-16

### ***** "A red head by the side of the road"
Charming, funny, well read.
-- Phoeberoe, 2024-05-09

### ****- "156 Story Treehouse"
Very good
Enjoyed listening to it while I was home sick
Very entertaining 
I love this series
-- Bumpyflea, 2024-05-06

### **--- "Review"
Many of the books that I want are not on the app so that’s why I gave this a two star but it is good apart from that
-- Rose gemstone, 2024-04-29

### ***** "One of the greats"
Been using for some years now, brillian app and a great collection of books and audiobooks. 

Only thing missing is an CarPlay and apple watch interfaces and then its next level
-- Anas D. Alo, 2024-04-26
