No more satisfaction

While admittedly some improvements were made, the removal of page turning animation is a HUGE turnoff for me….
Strange as it may sound,it takes most of the feel of reading a book….
Can’t see why not to have an option to choose….
Big mistake by Apple in my humble opinion

I used to really like the app, but it seems to have bugs in the newest version

The app started showing some book collections as empty on both an iPhone I have and a MacBook, even though they had several books each. For some reason the specific collections seem to have the proper content in an iPad I have and is also using iCloud. I am really worried this will result in me losing several of my books. All devices are up to date, iCloud enabled in all of them, wasn’t able to find any solution so far :-(

App shuts down immediately

It’s been a while that books I have actually bought won’t open. When I click on them to read, the whole app just shuts down and kicks me out. Why would that be happening? For this reason, just 2 stars… I am sorry but it seems I cannot clearly use the app anymore… I just hope they fix this issue.
