Editing review: I've been using this app for years and love the concept, the variety, everything. But the past 6 months to a year the narration just pauses. There seems to be no rhyme or reason, doesn't matter if my screen is on or off, app is open or closed, close to my phone or far when using BT, it just randomly pauses whenever it wants. It's extremely annoying. I hope this is fixed with the new app Libby. Easy to use and tons of new books and classics!!

I really enjoy this app and use it daily. It's a mobile library without overdue fees! You can choose to read or listen to audiobooks. If a book is unavailable, place it on hold. Once available, it's delivered right to the bookshelf on your device. I tend to use the audiobooks more because I can listen as I do chores, while away from home, or stream via bluetooth through my car or home audio system. It's an awesome app, with a library full of books. I've had it for over 3 yrs without any issues.

Recently, there have been some bugs with the software... Dropping and having to use a library card to reset... Did that three times in a week! Hope it's cleared up! I wrote this a couple of years ago!! It's still true...I would be lost without this app!!! "Without a doubt my favorite and most used app!!!! library access always with me... books, audio books, magazines, videos all with my library card. I travel a lot with only the weight of my kindle...couldn't be without it!"
