User reviews
It's difficult to get it working offline. My downloaded books tend to disappear and have to be downloaded again. The Enable Offline Reading button simply doesn't do anything. Right click on the book provides only Open book option, the Download and Pin stays greyed out. Continuously misbehaving application, Terrible ugly duck from Amazon
