    Good, if you could select a word and copy to clip board or; look up words in a dictionary it would be great

    Too slow. Typical windows App!

    A decent app, except on my Lumia 920 occasionally a whole line goes missing in between pages and the only way to see it is to switch orientations. The issue however occurs in both orientations. 4 stars besides this issue.

    My favorite App. I haven't read so many books in years. It freezes if you open the same book on 2 different devices though.

    Hard to manage

    Learn about kindle feature is a joke. Can't readily load files to windows phone app and browse file to open easily. Keen to use it but limited functionality if you have existing book files

    Fantastic app. Only missing a star due to lack of a rotation lock feature. Thank you Amazon!
