    :?) works for me

    Eeryone says its so bad and all but really it depends on what you're looking for.true that you cant add your own authors,but it is ok.dont see why people get so heated over something thats free and that works fine.and yes some authors youve never heard of but oh well........everyone just has to decide for themselves if they like it or not.i like it.also is nice on your eyes with what looks like wood for a backround.nice :?)

    Great idea BUT

    Love the concept and shows promise but needs work! I want to be able to add an author not let the app pick for me. It only picked up books from my home page not my library or archived books. I only keep samples on the home page so its not much good to me in this version. Will watch for updates tho!

    Good, but..

    I really like this idea but sometimes when I open another web page (like when I look something up while reading) the authors audio portion of their interviews pop up. I've been trying to get it to stop, but I haven't figured that out yet. Keep working on this app please!

    Good for B&N blog link

    I use it weekly to review the Free Fiday selection and to check if there are tech updates. Use the Nook icon-it is a link to their running blog. Good info found there about app updates, etc. Don't really find author link that useful but the Nook link is very much so.

    Needs Improvement!

    It needs to have a way the user can add his or her own favorite author. The current list of authors is arbitrary.

    Disappointed

    This App has very few of today's most popular fiction authors available for you to select as your "favorites". I thought it would allow you to import or add any of your favorite authors who might not be on their list; however, I am not finding that possible. I am VERY surprised at all of the best selling fiction authors that are missing! It would be a GREAT App if you could completely personalize your list of "MY AUTHORS"! If I have overlooked that possibility, please let me know.
