See the title….

Simple and elegant. A reading aid that works.

I want to read more, but I have a short attention span. This simple system is the first that I have stuck to. Cutting books up into bite-sized daily chunks really help me actually FINISH books I've always wanted to read but never had the patience for. Love it.

I didn’t receive my new issue as promised

Your app promised me I would get a new issue at the time I set. So I set it for 9 am to get a new issue of Aesop’s Fables, and I never got it this morning. Instead, it said I had to wait another 24 hours. I don’t care if it only is two dollars to upgrade, I thought this feature was free. So I think I’ll just forget it and read somewhere else

What a service! And it’s free!

Thank you, Michael, for providing so many books!

Excellent App for Readers

I love this app. I used it during Covid and recently re-downloaded it to tackle some classics that have been on my TBR for a long time. I love that the books are released in small serial sizes, it makes tackling a long classic literature novel less daunting. 10/10 I recommend.

My favorite app

Worwren13 on

United States

This is my favorite app of all time and I’m not being hyperbolic. It has increased how much I read and the breadth of what I read. My favorite part is that it doesn’t track me and is local. I look forward to my serial every day.

This is a great app

Serial reader is a terrific app to have especially if you’ve always wanted to read some classic literature but haven’t had the time. I just finished Bleak House by Charles Dickens which is one of several books I’ve read this year. I can read while waiting in line at a store, in the waiting room at the doctor’s office, etc. I highly recommend it!

Great App

Really enjoy using this application

Wonder app. A simple ask

I think the app is great and have enjoyed many of its features. I would ask that you add an ability to mark books you have already read before using the app as finished. Would be a great way to track them all. Thanks!

Easy to use and makes reading classics so fun!

I adore the Serial Reader app! I downloaded it to read Pride & Prednudice for the first time and can’t wait to read more classics. The serials it sends each day are a great length and helped me get into classics. The app is wonderful for seasoned and new readers alike.
