Updated one year ago
By Dire raven (Pcmac user)
Since all the other reviews are older than one year I thought I would try this app out and review it. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was I was surprised at how many books were missing from popular authors. Brandon Sanderson only had two books listed when his Mistborn and other series are very popular for instance.

error message and question
By Play!19 (Pcmac user)
Upon trying to share via twitter, there is an error on close message and no tweet.
Why are authors listed alphabetically by first name?
Lots of potential...

Great lists, but "find it" feature lacking
By Ohellodello (Pcmac user)
These are great lists and it's awesome to have them so readily available. The only problem - and perhaps someone can enlighten me on this point - is that the "find it" feature, which as far as I know is powered by oclc's worldcat search api, doesn't bring up local, relevant results (essentially the results you would get if you used worldcat's actual site).
A previous reviewer suggested that only academic libraries were included in results, but I'm not sure that's the problem. Utilizing the find it feature for HP & the deathly hallows, for example, tells me that the nearest copy (I'm in Wisconsin) is at an elementary school outside Philadelphia. Hmm.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Regardless, I think it's a great readers advisory/collection development tool, but marketing it to teens with the promise of a feature that isn't actually functional seems problematic.
4 for great potential and because I'm sure yalsa can iron out the wrinkles.
