## Review summary

Reviewers praise a strong library of classics and note the app is free to use, but widespread reliability problems dominate: books fail to render or download, the app freezes in endless update loops, and updates/maintenance are years overdue. Support is scarce, with a 404 on the developer site and apparent abandonment. Content appeals when it works, but stability and maintenance are major blockers.

### Pros

- Large collection of classic/literary titles (nice selection of older books).
- Free to use.
- When functioning, offers a solid reading experience and quality literature.
- Historically well-regarded when it worked; users report past good performance.

### Cons

- Rendering/loading issues: books fail to render or never finish rendering.
- Downloading issues and library disappearing after download attempts.
- App freezes or remains stuck in endless update/render loop.
- Lack of updates for years; appears abandoned by developers.
- Support problems: developer site shows 404; app seems unmaintained or removed from the App Store.
