8 of 15WAIT TIMES! You’re getting (basically) FREE BOOKS THOUGH!!! Soooo still 5 star 👍🏼
Having this app is absolutely amazing! I love that I can listen to audiobooks while doing housework, gardening, driving etc.
Libby was so easy for me to sign up for. It allowed me to read so many books on my kindle for free! All you need is a library card and a few other things and you set. I highly recommend this app.
The glitch mentioned in my previous review was fixed! I love Libby and am so grateful I have access to use such a great resource like this. Keep up the good work!
This app is so good if you want to have a good online library then this is definitely for you
Great abundance of books and they mange there holds very well. I like reading in Libby more than a regular book. I highly recommend Libby for any one that likes a good read.
I mean, we pay for it with our taxes but it’s actually one benefit we can all receive! Woohoo!
This app is great aside from the allowance of AI.
