BestNovel - Novel Story Reader

great app love being able to watch ads for chapters.

great app. love that I can read chapters just by watching ads

I'm enjoying the story what I'm reading at present. Though I had given 4 stars earlier, now I changed it to 1 because of too many advertisements hampering the reading. I'm not liking it, advertisements in the mid of reading is infuriating

great app,can read peacefully without any interruptions and can unlock episodes through watching ads

to many adds, switch from English to Spanish have not been able to switch it back the story is still English but the adds are all Spanish if ever finish this story I am deleting this app

excellent read, can't get enough of it .

love 💗 this app books are interesting 😁

I've really enjoyed the books I've read so far. The thems are Great and the writing really flows . No awkward start and stops of sentence and paragraphs...

Love the variety of books available. Just std with the app. I am enjoying the reading thoroughly

terrible editing. very poor continuity. could have been great.

It started out great but the longer you try to read for the ad count get higher then run put of ads and have to read articles then back to ads then no ads and cannot read any further very dissapointing

I like the stories but it is pretty much an ad per chapter then it hits with ads for points

So beyond angry. I was MANYYYY chapters into a really good story and then was forced to update the app. Now the book isnt in my library and I cant find it. all those ads all that time and its just gone.

Sincerely this story is my first on this app.I havebeen so hooked into it that i am reluctant to leave. I dont know whether it is because i just started it has,been smooth sailing.

great stories

I tried to get chat help with a missing reward. After an hour of trying to sort it out the person said give them a minute while they look into it. it has been about 2 and 1/2 hrs. they never replied back. never fixed the issue

so far so good I got free chapters by watching ads which is OK for me its free this way

I am still loving the stories and so many varieties of books and novels the adds annoy me.

good books, keeps me very drawn into

I can't seem to pull up the pay page.

it's like a lot of ads good to interest a person but not a person more time than it's worth. my opinion is that no one has the time or money for this.

the app changed from English to Spanish?? how did it do that and how do I get it back to English???

The books are good and if you don't mind watching ads for coins it's pretty simple to unlock chapters for free!

Outstanding!!

this story has really capivated me , can't wait to see what happens next.

Great reading. easier to claim more free reading

please lower cost of chapters to match the amount u can earn

great stories that keep you hooked

wish author's would fu ish the books

well written, interesting

Great

I love reading so this app is perfect. great stories and I get to dive into a different world everyday.

enjoying dating my billionaire boss!!!

SCAM - there is no way to cancel your subscription. It doesn't show in the Google play store under subscriptions, there's nothing in the app to let you cancel. AI chat bot/support, no help. DON'T DOWNLOAD IT.

I love it, all the stories are amazing and really keeps you engaged

good app

Frustrating to stop in the middle of a chapter ans can't go foward. If the book I'm reading currently wasn't nearly finished i would have end and deleted the app. I love reading but can't watch and ad (same stupid ad) every 2 pages.

hate the commercials but love that I can read the books free that way

too much bs. to many toggles. too many ads.

Great Books on this app! I have thoroughly enjoyed all of the books I have read so far and I have several more lined up and waiting!!

Not bad so far

This app hooks you by giving you a couple of chapters, and then you have to earn ten minutes, but it keeps taking you to back chapters, causing you to lose those minutes. I got all the way up to chapter 10 and then it stopped. It won't let me finish unless I BUY and I repeat, BUY more minutes. It won't let me earn them by watching ads like it said when I downloaded their app. So it gets you hooked all the way up to chapter ten and then drops the bomb, you have to spend money to finish the book.

Major issue with this app.... when I close for a while because I need to get busy, when I come back, I can't find the story I had just been reading. I'd like to be able to finish reading at least ONE story. So annoying!

too many ads, intrusive

The cursed alpha, seventh bride. Oh my goodness such a deep and arousing, I love it.

It's just ok. WAY too many ads to watch without paying. The stories are good but I spent as much time watching ads as I did reading. Not worth it in the long run.

I like the different books that are available

0K........So Far

I am enjoying the patient emotional and mental parts between the two main characters, how they are learning about one another. Greatest problem is in simply enjoying the read.. maybe 3 pages... then work for 3 more, constantly. Just hope to make it through this one... frustrating! Many (writers) or (ai) lose readers this way. Reading should be relaxing. Still, interesting story!

Love reading these books.

Beware. I kept receiving notifications about viruses. DO NOT TRUST THIS APP!!!

Very good stories and app has the option to read and listen. Only issue is too many ads

I'm really enjoying this app, I'm able to read for free apart from watching ads which doesn't bother me. the books are very good and perfect for a quiet restful me-time. I can also put it on headphones so I can craft at the same time. Brilliant

One short video for one free chapter. Better then many apps where you have to watch 2 full minute advertisements

I like this app because I don't have to watch 4.commercials to get to the next chapter like the others. Usually one is all there is.

The chapters are short, but the ads are infomercials. I don't mind watching ads, but the ads can last 2 minutes or more, and some chapters, you have two watch two of these. the writing seems decent, but the ads are ridiculous.

this is the best reading app so far👏👏. I started using a day before yesterday. if I encounter something that I'm not happy with I will definitely and add it here, kudos for now!!!

Really loving this app. Great stories that are easy to find whichever type of genre I am looking for.

Ridiculous - 470 chapters in, and it just stops. No warning, the story just stops. I am so done with these reading apps. At least with Kindle, you get the whole freaking story at once. Reading on these other apps, with all the coins and ads and other BS, is torture. I can read 10 Kindle books in the time it takes to read just one of these disjointed, half written stories. This app sucks!

Great stories that are well written and have been grammatically checked. I dont mind the ads, it's a great way to still be able to read without purchasing coins and lots of ways to earn coins. I've downloaded and uninstalled tons of similar apps because all they want is for tou to spend money on coins, or sign up for ridiculously expensive subscriptions. this app gives you the choice to earn or buy your reading time.

BestNovel has really good stories to read and the authors are very talented and they will keep u on the edge till the very end.!! I enjoy it alot

The stories are well written and truly engaging I could read for hours, but the ads after every chapter are a bit much. Overall the app makes for good reading, which is something I truly enjoy.

like it

says "free" is not. too bad, was enjoying the story

promise new chapter unlocks for watching 1 or 2 ads, but you end up watching 6+ with NO free unlock.

Don't mind watching ads, but cutting into the middle of a chapter you already watched an ad to read....temu ads are awful..so hard to get out of... deleting now!!!!!+

if you do not mind ads so far the reading is free. it is an amazing treat.

great app. I'm loving the stories

love the books very easy to navigate and the ads are work great to unlock chapters.

So far all I have read has me pretty much hooked on these stories!

The stories are okay, but too long. Too many chapters. I would rather have longer chapters. I don't really mind the ads.

Good stories to read.

i did pay the $59 for the year. I do not regret it, I couldn't stand the ads. but I have read enough books now that it was worth the money

so far so good, the app is easily accessible, love the stories, except the ad

The stories are good, with few grammatical or spelling errors, that I've seen. However, I had a challenge to read 30 minutes within an hour to receive an hour of free reading. I failed the challenge due to all of the ads. :( I read free chapters for more than 13 minutes. So, that's a lot of ad watching to not get the other 17 minutes of reading time completed within 47 minutes. There are ads within the chapters, not just ads to unlock, which are usually about a minute each. So, lesson learned.

There are way too many ads & I also get stuck in an "ad loop" that repeats the same screens repeatedly & then locks up so I have to exit the app & log back in.

too many ads. temu is confusing

annoyingly delightful reading! sic! intermittent ads! 👍🤗👍👍👍

Great stories, all free, just watch a couple of short ads in between. Getting the multiple chapters via several ads at once isn't worth it, you still get an anyway, just not the watch to read free notice.

This app is better than most with being able to access free reading, but is entirely overpriced like all of them if you have to purchase coins.

after the first few chapters, one must wait for 30 to 190 seconds of ads to read every 3 page chapter, and some ads seem to get stuck in loops with multiple clicks to get out. while the books are interesting, they wander with a lot of loose ends-- and WAY TOO MUCH TIME SPENT WAITING FOR ADS and this review won't process with a one star rating!

The app is ok. Good book options. Too many ads to finish a book though. I don't like having to pay to read.

I gave just added this app. I am really enjoying the book I am following so far. So, filled with intrigue, back stabbing galore, quite fitting to capture a reader imagination . Enjoyment so far is really intricate with the quote " welcome to my parlour , said the SPIDER to the FLY".

Too many stops and starts.

This is a great story I am reading. It has kept me on the edge of my seat, waiting for the next drama to unfold.

So, below is my initial review, I meant every word until...In the award section it said get so many coins for leaving a review. I left the following review but have yet to see my reward of coins. plus the ads come more frequently, like after every chapter, BESIDES the the ads that I watch to get more chapters. this is now my new review! I really like the books on this app. Thw authors in most of the books have proper verbiage. Easy to follow the story line.

expensive. nothing is free.

Absolutely amazing app to use! couldn't put my phone down for hours!

Every time I read 2 sometimes 3 pages, there's an ad.

Enjoy the endless ads after each chapter of two or three pages max. Ads run on and on and on. A couple of brief ads would be fine but the average ad is close to 1 or 2 minutes. The BetMGM goes on forever....

I love that you can listen to the stories I stead of just reading them. the AI voice os better than any other app, and the book highlights the words its reading as it goes. I have found more of the books I like to read on BestNovel, and I love that I only have to watch 1 ad for 20 minutes o f listening. It allows more chapters to be read than reading it by myself a chapter at a time with way more ads. Plus I can listen to it as I drive to work.

so far the stories I have been reading on this app are captivating. and unlocking is manageable. only the up scrolling that is not enabled that has been a concern to me

loooove

Interesting story. I hope it stays till the end. I appreciate that you can watch ads to keep readin

gripping stories. easy reading. emaculate vocabulary. If you don't wish to choose the subscriptions option, the adds you unlock to read the chapters are not to long. Absolutely worth it 👌

Very easy reading app to enjoy!

I like the book I am reading and I have watched countless videos and then it's not even recognized that I did watch the videos and it has me watch more just to get 20 minutes of reading. Ridiculous. Now it's showing No video ads to watch so I am locked til this stupid app decides when I can resume reading. Maybe decrease my star review.

love the book HAte that I have to play so many games to read again

I have enjoyed the books I have read until I find out they don't finish. It's frustrating to have to wait for more chapters to update.

the stories are interesting

👌

The book was fine although I never did get to the end. it is waiting for the writer to write more chapters. currently we are at 302 chapters. I paid the $9.99 for the week to skip ads, now when I'm trying to cancel it there is no cancellation through the app. there is the ability to delete your account, however that does not cancel charges. I thought I would give this app a shot based on previous reviews. however, these are books that are basically never-ending.

The app itself is fine, but the novels are all AI slop. Either that, or every author is writing the same story about women abusing other women because they're just so jealous, with the worst cases of continuity errors and grammar mistakes and same characters with different names you've ever seen, and every author thinks they're too good for a proofreader. Save your energy and go to a library, where they have real books AND e-novels you can read for free.

The app seems great at first, but why should I have to watch an ad when I turn a page in a chapter? If I have the required coins or have already watched videos to open a chapter, I shouldn't have to disrupt the chapter by watching a video irregardless of whether it is short or not. I've already deleted 2 reading apps because if the amount of coins it takes to read one chapter. This one may be next.

Love the books, the characters and storyline. I am mostly a werewolf storyline reader and these have not failed to entertain me. Wished they were audiobooks, my vision is bad. But the fact they use ads is better than trying to get or pay for coins to complete a chapter.

I've had enough, this app is very greedy you watch an ad or read an article, read 2 pages another ad last page of chapter another ad then read last page another ad. The authors should be furious with how this app works I'm 100 chapters into a 500 chapter book very good story line very few grammatical errors. Sorry I won't be able to finish my hope is the author will publish it and get away from these types of programs.

Seems scammy. Downloaded and read 5 minutes and ads won't load to open next chapter. $60 to read mediocre fiction is highway robbery. If I can't read at least 5 books with ads to see if the authors are worth the money, I'm not investing a dime. You need to give readers something to get hooked on before trying to force the pay to read option. I'm not far enough into the book to be invested, it's easier to delete the app and move on.

I didn't mind having some of the ads before but now the ads are that to tap on one of the blue ads but then it takes another hr before you could tap on it again. Like I'm gonna start reading again after an hr later. I like to be able to see the ad then move on to reading. If this is the only way to read a book without having to pay, guess I'm uninstalling this app which I had it for a while now. This was my favorite app to read a book. Now I'm watching more ads than reading. Time to delete.

Although the stories are incredibly engrossing there are a lot of inconsistencies. It seems as if several different authors are contributing without having read what was written before. However there are two things that absolutely detract from the storyline. one is that the ads run out and there is no way to continue until more are released. The second even worse is that the story just stops all of a sudden. It says the author is writing more. You have to wait several days for more content.

My only problem is a glitch in the ad presentation. The system switches between 1 ad for one chapter, or three ads for 3 chapters, which is a pretty good system, but sometimes it doesn't give me my chapters and then makes me watch another ad or set of ads, which is kind of cheaty. But I like the story I am reading-- it is consistently done, and very intriguing-- but sometimes I have time to read for five minutes, and I get to spend 4-1/2 of it watching ads. :)

books are a good read App is OK but there ia frequently issues with points converting & the help support is really no help at all. you can watch a video ad to unlock each chapter of the books but there isn't always ads available & you will need to wait... plenty of option to purchase coins to unlock some or all of the chapters though

after watching the original ad, then another ad will show up every two pages. that doesn't happen every time I open the app. other than that, this is a great app. the stories are very interesting. kudos to those that developed this app.

this app has some good stories but you watch an ad to access a chapter that ad becomes Three (3) ads then sometimes you read one (1) page then there is another ad sometimes there are as many as four (4) ads within a chapter even sometimes an ad to let you get to the next chapter that makes you watch another ad or Three (3) to start the next chapter. they're not paying for editors that's for sure.

The books are great but the ads are ridiculous. Have this on another device reached out with my issues & got no contact back. Tried paying for a weekly subscription & wouldn't take my card because it's INVALID. Funny because it works on other apps. 5 minutes for an ad is beyond ridiculous. The author should have a printed copy with all the ads you have to watch. The chapters aren't even long. 5 paragraphs & then you watch a 3 minute ad & then it makes you watch another 2 minute ad.

I am uninstalling this app. its ridiculous that the ads last 3 times longer than the little bit you actually get to read before the next ad. then it starts making you watch 3 and sometimes 3 ads just to unlock a few pages. this app is so not worth the time it takes...

Update: The drop to 3 stars is due to the change in the amount of ADS you have to watch. It used to be only 1 to unlock the chapter, now it's every 2 chapters and sometimes it will force close the app or won't count. I understand you want to get revenue from us watching ADS but now it has made your app unbearable.

I thought this app would end up like all ÿhe others, expensive but no it is absolutely wonderful and I'm recommending it to any one who wsnts a good read You can earn chapters by watching ads, which can be a bit disconcerting as they are extremely long. However, it doesn't stop my enjoyment of the book I'm reading.

normally the ads are meant for unlocking chapters but they tend to pop up while reading an unlock chapter and this can be annoying and very distracting. Also sometimes after watching very long ads to unlock a chapter, you still get directed back to rewatch the ads again from the beginning, meaning that you forfeit the ones that you already watched to unlock that particular chapter, I believe this should be reviewed and looked into so as to create a better user and reader friendly experience.

NOT Free, which is what the ads promise. And they are stingy on the points you can earn from watching ads. The story I'm reading is full of word-use and grammatical errors, but it's humor makes up for some of that, which is why I give the app a 2* rather than a 1* rating.

So far, the stories are good. BUT the ads to read are repetitive and frequent. I'm fine with watching ads, 3 for a full chapter seems fair. But ads that are repeating for 60 to 90 secs every 2 pages stinks. Probably will delete after I finish this book. If I can even convince myself to put up with it until then.

I love reading books in this app but suddenly I am getting multiple ads in chapters. I understand an occasional one will pop up in the middle of a chapter for other free reading apps but why so many apps during a chapter. I July I reached out to the support for help. I have not received anything back. only an automated message asking me what payment options I am choosing. I emailed my bisque to support and have not received anything in return

Love that this app actually allows you to read for free without charging tons of money. Many opportunities to earn free reading or just watch a short ad to unlock chapters. Most of these kinds of apps promise free chapters but want you to pay for a pricey subscription - this app actually does not require that.

I get the ads. There are plenty. BUT when I read, I read. Half decent story & suddenly "Secure Connection Failed". Wait 2 - 24 HR and out starts working again. I'll put up with ads to read the story - no way am I going to be pushed to buy.

this has to be an app with the worst advertising experience Ive ever run into. literally an advertisement with a few words between each ad. on average a chapter was 5 paragraphs. to read those 5 paragraphs you need to watch up to 3 ads of around 90 seconds each. The books appear to be AI reimaginings of similar Kindle titles.

I did like this app, up until every single chapter stopped using ads to watch and demanded 2 articles per short chapter. Sorry, but I'm not opening a bunch of possibly malware-infected websites with tons of ads all over THOSE just for 1 chapter. That is far more egregious than most other novel apps. The moment you start taking advantage of me is the moment I uninstall.

This app uses bait-and-switch tactics. The end of each chapter displays a prompt to watch 1 ad to unlock the next chapter. However, another ad then pops up after each page. Each chapter is ridiculously short, 3-4 pages at most. The kicker is when the ads freeze after a short period of reading time, and the story cannot continue. Frankly I have had a poor experience with any apps of this kind. It's very disappointing.

I get why there are ads. but dislike how short the chapters are between ads. the ads are to long 30 seconds should be enough. so annoying. also where are the interacial stories. also when its time to do the ads. its at the point where they download right or there is nowhere to exit out. going to delete this app.

Interesting stories but the chapters are too long .... imagine having to read a story that is up to 1000 chapters and more, too tasking for many readers. Also the adverts are too plentiful and frequent.... even though it asked if you are interested or not it will still keep on bringing the Ads you resented... kindly honour readers choices please.... Kindly reduce the adverts concurrently when readers gain coins or else the accumulation of gained coins is pointless... Thanks for your efforts.

I love the story line and I don't mind watching adds to get coins to watch extra episodes but what's with this points rubbish ? how do I convert them to coins ? just abolish the stupid points system it is very frustrating. Also just wrote this review to receive 50 coins and did not get them , yet another app going to be uninstalled ok it says i have to upload a screenshot of my reveiw , 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ this is getting ridiculous

So.Many.Ads. If you love watching ads, this app's for you! It starts with an add between chapters, then they add ads during the chapter too, and the chapters are short, so you end up watching lots of ads. Then you have to watch 2 ads between chapters, plus the in-chapter ads. Some are super long, like 175 seconds long. Every book I've read on this app has been unfinished; why post unfinished books? If you exit the app and open to read again you get a blank page with no books available.

Enjoyable. I like getting points and free coins. I do wish there were more options for free coins as I do not purchase coins. It would be nice if the free game play worth 80 coins would load and if the meal time points would extend to 3pm for lunch. I have also experienced not gaining all the points from watching videos or reading ads.

Completely interrupted. 4 30 second or longer ads for one chapter of 13 pages. And then a 2 minute ad at the start of a chapter. Other apps have shorter, fewer ads. Won't be keeping this one beyond one story. Also, dark mode isn't very dark when there's a bright white banner across the bottom. Extremely annoying.

I'll give it 3 stars, because if you watch ads, it's free. That being said, they lie about the ads. At the beginning of the chapter it says, "watch 1 ad to unlock chapter." That 1 ad ends up being 3. You struggle through, then BAM, you get an ad when you turn the page. You struggle through, then BAM, another. So, that's 5 ads for 1 chapter. Which, let's be honest, is like 5 pages. The weird part, it gives you the option at the beginning of each chapter to watch 2 ads for 2 chapters.

Has some good books.. but FREE nope they are not. Lots and lots of ads. And I am not talking about short ones.No they are very long ads and most of the time it is just the same ad on repeat for 2 mins. if I could give no stars and could post a review I would.

This used to be a good app, but now since the update, it's terrible. You watch one ad to unlock the chapters, then while you're reading the chapter, you get ads popping up from nowhere, then half way through the story you have to watch two ads, and you still get ads popping up while you're reading the chapter. It's ridiculous. I'm uninstalling, it's not worth bothering with.

I can't imagine paying to read these when the one I'm reading has NOT been completed and I'm forced to return every day or so for the next "installment"... okay for free, but totally not acceptable if I had decided to spend money to read off of the website.

I'm glad that I didn't bite on paying to use this app. When I watch adds for "free" reading, I still get ads halfway through most chapters and I fear I might still be stuck with ads if I pay. Also, they didn't indicate that the story I was reading was ongoing and not complete. I've wasted a lot of time on this story and who knows when or if it will be updated or finished.

The story is filled with inconsistencies, contradictions, dropped plot lines, and endless repetitions. But the ads! The app requires you to watch approximately one loooooong ad per chapter. It takes longer to watch the ad than to read the chapter. Then, additional random ads pop up, so your chapters really weren't unlocked. Deceptive and annoying. I understand the ads are necessary, but don't lie and say the chapter is unlocked only to throw one or more additional ads into the pages.

This is probably one of the better reading apps. It actually allows for a certain amount of free reading, as long as you're willing to watch a few ads. It does lose a star though, because, A: it can't count. Watch an ad doesn't mean 4 or 5. B: there are still pop up ads every few 'pages'. C: almost every ad is Temu.

I love the books. But after the last update, my points will not change over for days. Then when I watch adds for a chapter, it's not one ore two, it's 3 to 2 at a time. Then while reading and try going to the next page a add pops up after each page. So what is the sense of me watching adds or reading adds if you don't honor already doing that. I deleted before because of this problems. Fix it. I am ready to delete it forever and leaving this as my review.

I love the stories and are anxious to read the next series. However after reading so many chapters looking forward to the ending, a message says: the writers is writing more. Why not post the whole book at one time,so we can finish it and start another series. Because I have not been able to finish the book, my review of this app and other apps like this, is very low.

Talking strictly about the app, it's not bad. I can handle having to see ads to open chapters; MOST of the ads aren't horriblentime sinks, and I like the options of multiple ads for more chapters or a set length of reading time. I would like a button to take me back (when I'm reading) to the landing page that lists all of the available books. Maybe it's there and I just can't find it. Storywise, I'm starting to have problems with The Healer Bride". Copied paragraphs, and plot holes are blatant.

Great, until you miss a day, I've watched over ten adds to backdate missed coins, not registered any of them, its worked before now its stopped, I think you need to look into the glitch, oh and Annie in customer service is useless, no help at all. The pages are getting smaller, adds longer, plus random unwanted apps you don't get anything for need to be got rid of seriously this would be a great app if it didn't have so many issues.

Unlike most ads that play videos randomly and interrupt your reading experience mid chapter, this one lets you decide if you'd rather watch an ad between chapters or not. There are other ways to earn points/coins in the meantime as well. Stories are decent so far. One thing I'd suggest is once you unlock a chapter it stays unlocked. I get busy and if I stay away from a story for too long I forget what happened. Rereading chapters helps me enjoy the story better so I actually finish it.

This app has a ticket system that requires 250 before they will convert to coins where they can actually be used. It is very confusing and unclear, and tickets expire quickly. Every chapter requires an ad unlock, though they do offer what looks to be the standard robotic reading voice for audio, so that is at least a plus that you can listen to it. ads fail to unlock frequently.

The app is good. The stories are very interesting and the idea that you should watch ad to continue is okay. it's not like the other apps that will tell you to top up before continuing. The only issue is that the update is not forthcoming regularly. The authors should try and be updating their books as soon as possible so that the readers will still have interest in reading their books. Somebody like me doesn't have that patience in waiting for an update for a day or two or even more than that.

I was hooked in the first chapters, however the chapters get shorter and the ads get more numerous or fail to deliver. I watch 4 ads (In realty 8) to be able to open 8 chapters ad free and the app made me watch another two ads for....1 chapter. I am about to delete another app and I am over 120 chapters into this story. I would say book, but what book has this many chapters? I would not mind paying if it did not equate to over 30.00 for an ebook. Good book, way to many ads.

I'm new to this app. Downloaded it to finish a story & although there are quite a few ads, personally I don't mind. edit: I still don't mind the ads but I am really getting PO'd about opening a story, watching 3 ads, & then being sent back 2-3 chapters that were read. When finally get to the one to read, I'm told to watch ad & then it tells me-no ad, go read, I do, only to find I can't open the new chapt because now it says "no videos available" WTH does that mean?

The author of this book is a visionary with a gift for painting a picture with an intoxicating descriptive simplistic fluidity that ripples my skin as it heightens. This book is far outside my typical, "go to", but sucked me in, as I read while waiting for the ad to finish playing. I've been engrossed in this enthralling and imaginative creative work of art ever since, the throbbing going from temple to temple to temple H-H-HOT!!! The two star take-a-way is due to the app, so many ads, boo-hiss!

Very odd! BestNovel has and promotes "incomplete" stories.... they are literally being written. After you get so far you get a message to wait for the author to continue writing. Even in their FAQs! What? Also, instances of chapters having an assortment of different narrators. Very distracting when a section has up to 5 or 6 voices in audio. Suspect it may be related to real-time publishing. I enjoyed the story mostly but missing an editor too! Adds are short-a plus!

I truly love the stories. But having to watch all these ads and some of the times when I'm watching the ads it jumps and go backs to the ad and you have to rewatch more ads just to get to where you were at. I mean if the app is claiming free but why can't it be like read 3 or 4 chapters then do the ad thing. This is crazy. really a waste of time.

This is app is great because you can just watch ads to get to the next chapter. You'll actually be able to finish a book if you want to without having to pay hundreds of dollars. So far I havent needed to pay and im enjoying my book. I dont mind spending money but coin fees the for these online novels are ridiculously expensive. So I appreciate that I can just watch an ad to get to the next chapter. Oh a scroll option when reading would be nice too but its not the end of the world lol.

Not my favorite platform. Stories are long and full of unrealistic drama. Too many twists and turns that add to the stories becoming a boring read. Update is horrible! For each chapter, you have to watch an ad. No problem. NOW YOU HAVE TO WATCH ADS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CHAPTER. Also, if you want to go back to previous chapters to re-read, you have to watch ads again. Deleting to free up space.

this app is okay, but the books go on and on forever, which wouldn't be so bad if the writer(s) would not keep forgetting details that has written in earlier chapters. characters randomly change living locations, or work pages. That kind of thing. it is annoying that even if you watch the ads for each chapter, they still play an ad after every 2 pages read. it gets to be to much

novels are good so far from what I've read. but there are some inconsistencies in some names and places as well as repetitive chapters. there are too many adds popping up almost after every page and it's very distracting and causes one not to want to read anymore. other than that I really have enjoyed the books. hopefully some gets published at some time.

Too many ads. You need to watch an ad per chapter (chapters are short) and then you need to swipe through ads every other page. These stories are not professional stories and I can't see me paying what the app wants to be paid. I'd be happy to pay $5 for a story, but that's not an option. And I think $5 is fair since I can get a story from a best selling author on Kindle for $10.

I am enjoying reading, but I'm not always able to complete the task asked. I am unable to watch videos for coins, or anything else related to achieving coins, which leads me to believe that I should purchase to watch without interruptions. It states that stories are free but, but it seems that is by purchasing a plan. I will try to get through this story, but if I am not able to, I will delete the app. That would be disappointing as I have an interest in getting through quite a few books.

TOO MANY ADS! I don't mind 1 ad per chapter, but I'm tired of the false "special" offers. "Watch 4 ads for 8 chapters" then after 2 pages the ads start again. "Watch with no ads for 5 minutes" then less than 1 minute in the ads start again. There's no way I'll pay $ to remove ads when I don't believe it will happen. I'll struggle through to try to finish the story I've started, and then I'm DONE! Finished 250 "chapters" and the writer is "updating" content. Waste of my time. Uninstalling now.

The teaser story seemed interesting, so I tried the app. Unfortunately, the lengthy ads every chapter past the first several take longer to sit through than it takes me to read the chapter it opens. I quit watching TV decades ago because I got bored during commercials and walked away to do something more interesting. I'm not sitting through commercials for this. I'm going to go read a real book. A library card is free, and you can get lots of free fiction online with a little looking around.

I gave two stars because you don't have to wait or pay for chapters. The ads are over the top. They start at the beginning, middle and end. Long ones too with no damn mute button. My favorite are the ones you look at and then you get no credit for watching the torture. I get that's the way you make your revenue, but damn. I stopped using this app before because of the ads. Please do better. Ads at end of chapters ... please.

the story that interested me started out ok, not as bad as some of these. then as I read the premise devolved to petty dribble that was not even logical for the most base human. so disappointing. The ads were obnoxious. started out ok. though I'm ok watching an ad ; developers need to make a living. But then 'chapters ' turned to paragraphs and the ads became so atrocious long I forgot where I was in the story which of course was sinking . good thing one of the commercials led to a better read

I enjoy the novels, however I am watching more ads than reading. It tells you to watch 4ads to watch free chapters, however the ads never stop in between, and when trying to watch ads to move to the next chapter, it tells you ads are not available. I will be deleting this app, as it is not confirming to what is stated. very irritating and frustrating. You have to watch about 1hours adds to read for 3 minutes, an absolute joke.

the novels are good so far from what I've read. but there are some inconsistencies in some names and places as well as repetitive chapters. there are too many adds popping up almost after every page and it's very distracting and causes one not to want to read anymore. other than that I really have enjoyed the books. hopefully some gets published at some time.

I understand ads are necessary for free reads, I really do. Most of the time, on a lot of apps it's great. I like the stories on this app, BUT, I counted these, one to open a chapter that's fine but 8 in one chapter! You watch ad to open episode,read the first *page*, then an ad, then 6 more before the end of the chapter ! Please! It takes 4 times as long to read it. How about perhaps 1 to open chapter then 3 during chapter?

I would give this app 5 stars because it is actually an app that you can read an entire story without having to spend money. However, when it says you have to watch an ad or read an article to unlock the next chapter, I should be able to read that chapter without pop-up ads interrupting it. If that's going to happen, just make me watch 2 ads or read 2 articles and stop interrupting the chapter with 2 or 3 pop-up ads. It's VERY annoying and disruptive to the story.

absolutely ridiculous. $60 subscription or you can watch ads. I wanted to read one full book free, via ads, to see if it was any good. the chapters are Very short, as you progress, the required number of ads go from one per chapter to 3 per chapter, to watching another when you turn to pg 2 of the chapter. then after all that you have to read anywhere from 1 - 3 articles. the articles are impossible to read, aren't counted by the app so you can't read any further. zero stars do not recommend

I get that ads have to be shown in order for them to make money. But, they're way too excessive. It's one thing to have ads in order to unlock chapters. I don't mind that. But, when you've unlocked a chapter (which is only few pages), and you get hit with multiple interruptive ads, it gets extremely aggravating, especially with some of the ads being scams that open up into the browser app (over and over!). Enough!

The novels in this app have been very good! I've been able to read daily without spending a single penny. Watching an ad to read the next chapter or play fun games to earn multiple chapters! There are times that I get a message saying "there are no ads available", unfortunately when I'm at a most intriguing part of the story! I'd love to see this fixed!! I still recommend BestNovel!!

the most frustrating app ever. reading "free"= endless ads. trying to close can lead to unwanted downloads bc position of install button. extra ads every 2 or 3 pages that do not give you any extra pages. offers for extra free chapter gives you more ads and they freeze so you gain nothing.endless chapters, 500-700 per book. chapters range from 3 pages to 15, with blank pages full of more ads. story inconsistencies, poor editing and unfinished books. Hard to follow. Takes the joy out of reading.

This was my favorite reader even with ads, but chapters take less than a minute to read and the ads are now 100-120 seconds. And on top of that a 90 second ad starts before the end of the chapter. Three minutes of ads for one minute of reading is unacceptable. FYI if an ad is more than 10-15 seconds, I set down my phone and don't watch it at all, so you are cheating your sponsors out of ad opportunities!

This is the best reading app I have found so far after checking out so many others. Good stories, the grammar is mostly well done, and no mixed up pronouns. However, the more you read, the more ads you are forced to watch to unlock chapters. It starts as one ad per chapter which is not too bad. But it becomes 2 ads and then 3 ads the longer you read. Some single ads are actually 3 ads. And some of the ads take too long to get through, which breaks up the reading time in a bad way.

DELETING THIS APP! The first book I read a month ago was fine. I started another today, the ads never worked, so I had to open it to "read" while I count to 25 to move on to next chp. I got to chp 24 and it says there are no ads available unless I want to pay, so I'm unable to continue reading. I think I'll start going back to used book stores and purchasing books for $1.50 +/- per book.

Best app to read out there. I tried several apps for reading & most had 2-4 adds for each chapter. Some even made you buy coins before you can continue. I unistalled all of them. This is the only one with just one add per chapter. I would love a no add chapter, but I'll use my Kindle for that as it's cheaper. I love the stories that I have read so far.

This is the most infuriating app. I have ever used. Not only do you have to watch unreasonable amounts of ads for each chapter, the option to watch more ads is taken away and you cannot read any further at all. my 2 star rating was for the story content. I was unable to finish a single story from beginning to end. Don't waste your time on this app unless you wish to experience the true meaning of INFURIATING!

The stories are interesting enough to hold one's attention, but the enormous amount of errors makes for frustrating reading. There's a clear lack of careful editing for continuity. There are many instances of wrong character names being used, story lines changing from one chapter to the next. Timeline progression wavering back and forth. An event that happened in one chapter happens anew somewhere else in the story. Thus has been true of 3 books so far.

It is deeply frustrating experience. It is great that I can listen in a decent AI audio voice (if you choose the right voice since some do not work at all) but completely frustrating to useless to prevent me getting the full benefit of the 10 minutes I get from watching an ad to stop at the end of each chapter and hive me a message saying "You are requesting too quickly. Please unlock to continue." This should not happen. I should be able to listen to 10 uninterrupted minutes. Instead, I ha

glitchy. I will admit to reading a story using the "free" ad option. Ads are sometimes a 3 ads in one, so you end up watching 3-9 ads per chapter, plus additional ads that start when you aren't finished with the current chapter, making it up to 10. Then the free option switches to read articles, but the safety certificates for the links aren't always valid, so they don't open. Once you hit that wall, you are done for the day. Don't think I'd pay for it.

I simply can't understand how these reading apps get away with the pricing. The stories are interesting enough, that is until I totally lose interest because I have to watch a 60 to 90 second ad to unlock 3 pages. I tried the subscription but 9.99 a week is very high. I'm better off going to Walmart and buying 2 or 3 books a week than trying to read one on this app.

The rejected luna,i love the twists and plots in the story. I hope love wins through in the end.. still reading! I dislike and it's very, very ignoring the amount of pop up ads reading each chapter. After unlocking a chapter with an ad, then 3 extra pop up adds in one chapter are just frustrating. it really doesn't feel like free reading book app, and I think I will uninstall it after this book.

I've only had this app for a short time but am liking it so far. Yes, there are a lot of ads but most of them are short or give you the opportunity to skip through them. I dislike paying for subscriptions on any app, so am quite happy to watch ads to earn coins and points to advance through the chapters. I'm hooked on the book that lured me into downloading the app, but there is a good range of titles and genres to choose from.

This app could be great if after watching the ads to read chapters, you didn't put an ad in the chapters you already watched ads for. I am getting ads less than a page after I start reading the chapter, then there's another ad on the next page. I had to watch 10 in one chapter. I had already watched the ads to read the chapter. This is very unprofessional and very Rude.

Loving the books available! It'd be nice to have a way to 'purchase' coins with points, though, instead of having to wait for them to convert over. (All of my short drama apps just let you use your points to unlock chapters, so that would be even better, but...) Also, and setting to stop auto-unlocking of chapters. I prefer KNOWING when I'm using my coins on a chapter.

it's ok, actual "free" reading if you don't count watching ads to open chapters (which I'm fine with). The issue is that it will offer "deals" to open multiple chapters if you watch a series of ads. When you've watched all but one ad to unlock the multiple chapters, it will suddenly "fail" to load any more ads. Your only option is to close and re-open the app, erasing all progress made by watching the series of ads AND eliminating the offered "deal". So be wary. Deals are basically scams.

This app is so good and the stories are genuinely great. there are plots that are so real and intense it turned you the reader into one of the characters, it feels like you're actually living the experience. Exciting, gritty, easy to read, sensational stories. Enjoy the readings and please give a five star to this app for choosing the best books and characters to entertain us.

The storylines are interesting, but they take too long to resolve. The chapters are too short and you constantly get interrupted with ads. Then, the ads don't load correctly, so you have read articles instead. But then the articles don't give you a secure connection. This is all a bunch of time wasting BS. I've tried reading several stories and have never been able to finish one. Notice the "read for free" button? YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR THAT! HOW IS THAT FREE?? These people have no shame.

good app...not a fan of how short the chapters are because that makes the ads longer than the read time but the option to open multiple chapters is a good aspect. The only issue I see is that after a few chapters it "runs out of videos or ads to watch" in order to open the next chapter, forcing you to pay. That kind of issue is a no-go for me.

Not off to a great start. First time I used the app, I watched the ads to get coins - cuz they sure aren't "free" novels - and never received the coins. And Annie is a useless feature, as it only has pre-programmed responses. It kept telling me I wouldn't get coins if no ads were available. They WERE available, I WATCHED them and still didn't get coins.

3½ maybe 4 pages per "chapter" then ads. Bar says watch 2 ads to open the next chapter. good luck. 3, 4 maybe 6 ads. certain ads, like Anytime Fitness buggers your ad count. Do not pass GO, do not collect $200. you spend more time navigating ads than you do reading. Stay the Hell away. this app is not the best. far from it. too bad. I was liking the story, but I can't deal with these ads. 4,6,8 ads when the bar says watch 2. not going to pay their prices for ad-free.

The story itself even with all the grammatical errors and inconsistencies is actually good. However, what I cant abide is how long its being drawn out. I have basically spent close to 70 dollars on a book that had it been finished would've been 15 at most so I'll buy a couple more chapters of this one to use up my current coins but no more and no other books from here.
