On my 1st story & I've already spent money to keep reading. But now I need to spend more, which I can't keep doing, so I'm deleting the app now before I get sucked in more. Has ways for you to earn tickets, but so far, those tickets are useless when it comes to buying reading time. 3 stars because, obviously, the story I'm reading seems pretty good.
Reviews for NovelCat - Reading & Writing
← Back to NovelCat - Reading & WritingThe book I've been reading is good, but there are SO MANY chapters & it takes so much money to unlock them. Even with copyrights, there's no way that it should cost as much as it already has (and I'm not even close to done with the book). I could previously buy equal amts of coins & vouchers. Now, you only get a fraction of vouchers compared to coins. I guess my reading rate is going to slow down significantly, as I'm not willing to spend more $ on ONE book (especially with its poor grammar)...
The stories are interesting and will keep you reading even with grammatical errors. However, you have to pay for every chapter after 15 chapters. And the chapters are 33 coins each, 2,000 and something coins cost $4.99. It would really add up to alot if you read multiple books or the book is really long. it's cheaper to just subscribe to amazon prime or amazon kindle and read unlimited books there.
Disappointment. Although the story is good and I understand everybody trying to make money but this is a never ending story that is endless in price and should be shared before someone start to read. Also it should cost as much when you can but a real book for way less and not feel pressured to purchase more. I enjoyed the book but now I have to make an ending up in my head because I refuse to but anymore coins. They don't try to give you any coins free!!!
Mixed feelings about the app. I get some writers are not from this country, errors will be there. I can get passed it for a great story, characters, etc. The bad part is the cost of each chapter and the low amount of coins you get when you top-up. I can't spend 20+ and not be able to download an entire book. There are plenty of e-reader apps that give you more for your money with equally great stories. Too expensive.
A Facebook add sucked me in. Immediately I had to pay $5 to get the next part of the story. I had some extra Google rewards, so I figured hey, I'll go for it. Read some more, had to pay another $5. At that point the story got even worse, they edited the first part (the free part) fairly well, then the further you get, the less editing. When they asked for ANOTHER $5 I gave up. I had already lost interest in the story. $15+ for a lame story is rediculous! This is not NY best seller. $1 MAYBE.
Nice stores... HORRIBLE ON PRICE OF BOOKS. Doesn't seem like a lot for each chapter after the 1st free 15 chapters, but like the books I read. 1 had 511 chapters, that left 495 chapters to pay for. .33, .29, .40 etc. Each chapter is different. The 1 I mentioned with 511 chapters would of cost over$150. I read a lot of books, but I'll just stick with buying my books on Google play or at stores. This is stupidly expensive. So many errors in the books
I could not get through one of these poorly written books. The grammar, the spelling and just the content hurt my head trying to decipher what it was. Also the chapters are waaaay too expensive. If I'm expected to pay that much for something, I at least expect it to be finished and properly written. Please review your content before publishing it and make sure there is a way users can pay a one time discounted price for a properly written book and not be cheating people out of money for trash.
Unfinished Novel!! There were a lot of grammatical errors which you can slightly overlook as you understand what is trying to be said (also that English isn't the author's native language). Being I can pay and get the whole book on Kindle. I think I will stick with that. Enjoyed what I could read hope they can get their novels finished before posting them. No ending still, 1 chapter per day. Advice: Use whatever coins you have and stick with the free vouchers too expensive to finish a story.
The novel I'm reading is interesting, it has some grammar mistakes but I can ignore that. However, it cast a lot to read you end up expensive allot of money. I will not finish the story I'm readying because of how much it cast. I have spend more than $35 and I'm not even close to finishing the book. It also takes a long time for them to release new characters and I don't like waiting long if I'm playing so much.
I like the Novel that I am reading and am very close to the conclusion. If I wasn't I would uninstall this App. Not sure if it is there way, or the Authors but there are only so many chapters, then you have to purchase the next 1, 5 10 or "ALL". Then "all" isn't ALL. I have spent more money on this digital book than I have on a hard cover, even contacted the app and they asked me for more details, I provided details then never heard another thing. Would not recommend!!!
I've read 3 books & liked the novels, however, of the 3 books I've only finished 1 because I' ended up spending over $50 to read books that I thought were free. One of the books had over 700+ chapters. I found that to be ludicrous. I wanted to even write my own book but decided to delete this app. It's sad because your books are good, but spending over $50 for one book that you can probably purchase for $12 - $15. Is ridiculous. No more ads please.
This is the worst book I ever read! For the following reasons ; it's not completely finished for the amount of money I have paid, it's to long, less chapters would have kept the readers, focuses on way more drama than romance, it's to drawn out, needs edited more. It is horrible! This is the first time I have read a book off this app and my last, deleting this app immediately. How do you plan to keep customers with books at this price that's over drawing stories out that's not completed?
Found the app from a Facebook add about "marrying into her family" novel. That's the only thing I read from platform and I really like it. But the problem is per chapter pricing is pretty expensive. I hope you will reduce the price to some extent. ** Also it would be good to show the release date of chapters so we can know whether the novel is currently active or not
TOO EXPENSIVE! You can get a Best Seller for far less than it costs trying to completely read the entire novel on this app. Download Kindle books. Many are free. Please don't give the excuse that it encourages the writers to continue contributing their works. I think the app needs to charge for the complete novel and then you can decide if you want to buy it or not. I quit after the first payment. I thought of the saying a "fool and his money are soon parted" and I am no fool!
The 1 story I'm reading has been really good so far. But man is it expensive. Cost of 1 cheaper is around 134 coins give or take. You can by 2100 coins for 4.99. That's about 16 "chapters" there are like 75 chapters in this story. So 20 bucks for 1 book. You can earn free coins. Down loading and playing g games is the easiest way but it still takes a fair amount of time to hit the level goals.
The book in reading, despite the grammatical errors and occasional double spaces, is actually pretty good and I'm on chapter 16...and wham, out of the blue comes the part where you're expected to pay. I guess I will never find out what happens 😒. Thankfully I started reading the reviews, they have helped me decide to uninstall and search for an actual FREE E reader.
All the stories are great, but I am dyslexic and although I can cope with it, it's still very troublesome to enjoy a story. I was originally using a text to speech extension on my browser to enjoy stories up until now, but it seems like once I got to a certain point I can't read from your website anymore and have to use the app but your app does not have any text to speech function or audio book function like Webnovel and Lightnovel pub and because of this I can't continue the book I was reading
Used to enjoy this app so much more. In the last month or so they have lowered the amount of coins, and now you have to click on numerous ads while "reading" the article. The daily check in also has been stuck on day 2(of the 7) since the last update a few days ago. The stories are ok. Some better than others. Had to stop reading 2 because the grammer was terrible, the characters kept being called wrong names and they just dragged on very slowly.
It's better then most apps. Just not for me. It is lacking in so many area's, i understand paying to read. However, what bothers be is that this app is only compatible with certain devices, i was hoping to be able to write using my computer. So i can easily proof read and adjust my sentence structures and errors and paste it after its all written out... it take way too much time using the keypad on the screen. So I'm just going to just work elsewhere.
