Really good but much room for improvement
I really enjoy this app. The main thing that I don't like is that some readers have a very specific accent and some readings are monotone. Plus I would like to know how long is the reading beforehand.

I really like this App. I have been able to listen to many classics with absolutely superb readers. Unfortunately there are some poor readers with thick accents or those who read books in a robotic fashion. It is also annoying when there a number of volunteers who read various chapters in a book. Just when you are getting used to a voice, the reader changes and you have to readjust your listening. Another annoying element is that at the beginning of each chapter, you have to listen to the name of the book, the fact that the book is in the public domain, and advice on volunteering. Can't this be done once at the beginning of the novel? Despite these criticisms, I have had many, many pleasurable hours listening to the books and I am very grateful.
This app is good but it is need to have dictionary to looking for words
It is ok but the way to find a book is annoying. I was looking for sense and sensablility once and found a good one with great girl reader but I can't find that one any more so I have use this dumb boy reader. You should make it so I can search by author. I am really glad that it works on my I pad because I have the oldest I pad so I can't get the newer apps. Please keep it this way:)
I downloaded this app as it promoted itself as "English" audiobooks, and I thought that meant "English accent" with the many English novels offered. I was as vanquished by the thick American drawl of the storyteller reading A Room With a View as I would have been hearing Huckleberry Finn read by a Scouse. It was impossible to suspend my disbelief and get into the story. I ended up deleting it.
It's so easy to use, loads of books to choose from and great audio quality
Lots of glitches. Screen freezes, shame because it has a good selection.
