Reviews for GoodNovel - Booktok, Stories

Absolutely bs. been waiting on an update on my book for a month now, and nothing. most stories on this app arent even finished and you have to read as they put out chapters, which can sometimes be 1 a day, 1 a week, or 1 a month. puts a time frame on bonus points […]

I actually like this reading app, and I have tried several.. like probably close to 60. The books I have found are worth reading. I actually think it’s 3 stars because the points that you need to earn were not worth the money after the free ones.The opportunity for more points without having to spend […]

I have tried several of these reading apps and what I like about this one is that the books have continuous scrolling (rather than page flipping), and I seem to get enough coins to read a few chapters a day where some others make it hard to earn even a single chapter unlock in a […]

The books are great but the cost for coins to unlock is too high. If I were to buy the coins needed to read a single, long book, as some are not complete stories, it could cost away more than any book is worth, in the end. I like that I can earn coins for […]

The stories go through points quickly, so if you actually like reading, you’ll either need to spend cash or an abundance of time earning points. It is best to stick to books free from my public library app. So far, it doesn’t seem as though their writers utilize proofreading or editors to check for even […]

I used to enjoy this app because it carries a lot of short stories I like to read during my breaks. But now, it requires a subscription to read them, at $20 a WEEK! Absolutely ridiculous. I’m not paying an app $80 a month to read some stories that don’t cost $5 to read to […]

Stories can be surprisingly good, but it’s so bloody expensive to pay to read. I signed up for a subscription thinking that might unlock at least *some* books, but it doesn’t seem to do anything at all after initial coins are rewarded. What’s the point of the subscription? Being charged exorbitant money for zero extra […]

Okay, I have had to give them back a star. The issue with compensation for disappearing books that were paid for was never taken care of even though I emailed as they said. But, I still really enjoy the other authors on this app. It’s gotten so expensive though! And the free holidays are gone. […]

I’m not a reader, but this book popped up on my Facebook page & it drew me in. As I started reading, I was drawn into the familiarity of the words being spoken. I found myself so enthralled, that by the time I realized how much of the story I had read…. I was sucked […]

This app has a plethora of books to choose from for readers of all genres. I do think it’s a bit pricey because it costs 35 coins to unlock a chapter and you don’t always get enough through the daily reward bonuses. However topping up and getting bonuses that way, I can read quite a […]

The stories catch your attention and are easy to read. Have found some errors in spelling. They cost too many points to read the next chapter. It reels you in allowing to read 5 to 10 chapters and then you can only read one and it costs 20 to 35 points which you can only […]

So far, this app seems pretty honest about what it offers. I appreciate the fact it offers free coins per day as well as other ways to get free coins to unlock chapters. The app also has the same amount of chapters for free that you see in the ads as the actual app; before […]

I have been encouraged to write a review for more of the points that allow me to unlock chapters. I believe that only 5 star reviews get the points. My honest review is that the chapters are too short like most of these apps. Unlocking them costs a lot for approximately 2-7 minutes of reading. […]

I really like the story I’m reading but there seem to be a lot of typos so an editor would be able to help our author a lot. I’m undecided on whether to continue with this app until I see how easy it is to read without having to pay. Its definitely not free and […]

This app has really good books. I gave 4 stars because the rewards system is severely lacking. You are lucky to be able to read one chapter for the rewards. They do have an additional point system where you watch 50 ads for 5 points. I have stayed with them for a while but when […]

My first time using this app and I had an in-app alert to receive unlimited short stories for $9.99 the first week, then $19.99 each week after. I accepted, willing to continue reading and see what this platform had to offer. It unlocked the stories for the 1st 24 hours but then kept asking for […]

NOT FREE. they love to say they have “free” stories, and it used to be you coyld earn free coins easily. then they started to force a paywall using the coins. was not too expensive at 1st, but then it got too expensive. now you have to pay a subscription fee and pay for coins […]

Great Stories, Wonderful reads. I’d give it 5 stars if they would charge the exact same for each chapter, instead of some being 15, some 35, some 48, etc… It’s difficult to predict how much money you need to spend on a book when they don’t have a set flat rate to charge. Because of […]

Way too expensive!! I purchased $40 worth of coins and couldn’t get through 1 book. The book was ok, but it was very frustrating to get through. It had many grammatical errors along with repeated sentences. There’s no way this particular story was edited with how many errors there were. It felt like too much […]

way too many ads. all in all it’s a good app. I gave it 5 stars previously, but there’s an ad at the end of each chapter AND you have to watch adds at the beginning of new chapters to unlock it. Definitely not as pleased with this app as I used to be… you […]
