The Love Book App Reviews

New favorite app. More recordings please!

I just bought this app a few days ago, and I absolutely love it. I love poetry (meeting Billy Collins in college was like meeting a rock star to me). This app not only introduced me to new poems, but the actors reading them brought them to life in a new way. The write your own/record your own poem feature saved everything perfectly. I hope there will be more recordings coming soon. I would love to open up this app and hear Benedict Cumberbatch reading "The Good Morrow," or Ewan McGregor, David Tennant or Robbie Coltrane reading Robert Burns.

Great app! But it could be even better.

I wish we had more readings to listen to... the poems are fabulous but some readings dont match the words in the poem (The Invitation, by Oriah. Read by Emma Watson is one that comes to mind) it would be nice to have the text corrected or a side note explanation. Some info on the authors also would be a great addition. Overall the app is totally worth the money and I hope we get more readings... Why is it that I can listen to Tom Hiddleston reading Love After Love on YouTube but not in this app?

I love this!!

I wish they would come out with an audiobook. Listening to Tom Hiddleston read Tennyson was a pleasure not to be missed.

Love this! With one suggestion...

I adore this app. I sometimes use it to meditate when I need a soothing, British voice to help me zone out. I also use it to lull me to sleep, much like a lullaby. The only thing I wish I could do with it is hit Play All on My Faves that I have saved, like we can on all of the poems, and listen to those without stop. Also, being able to organize My Faves would be lovely, sometimes I like listening to the same voice for awhile, or the same poet, so having all of my favorite Shakespeare items in one Favorites section, and all of my favorite Tom Hiddleston or Emma Watson read poems in another would be lovely, for example. Other than that, I use it nearly as frequently as my social media apps--and I certainly cannot say that about many other apps.

Love it!

Wonderful selection of poetry, prose, and quotes. Sadly it hasnt been updated in a long time so it is very slow nowadays but no less enjoyable.
