Short deals

I enjoy getting recommendations tailored to my reading preferences. The selection is broad, but I’d love to see more books from international authors or translated works. Still, it’s an awesome service for English readers. Also, some deals are short-lived, so you have to act fast. Still worth it if you love reading.

Good Deals but Too Many Emails

I found some good deals on mystery novels and bought a few titles at a discount. The recommendations weren’t always on point, and I got a lot of emails. Still, it helped me discover some new authors I enjoy.

The best virtual library

I like that there are lots of old and new works that are hard to find elsewhere - and no ads (or at least minimal ones), which is a real rarity. Sometimes the formatting of the books is a little off (especially with scanned PDFs), but I stop, read, and it doesn't bother me. If u love free access to Bulgarian literature, this is the place. From me - a big + for content and no unnecessary distractions.

platform is confusing and glitches a lot

The platform is confusing and glitches a lot. I had trouble accessing my textbooks, and customer support was slow to respond. Overall, a frustrating experience

Great for digital textbooks

The Bookshelf app is user-friendly, allowing me to highlight text, make notes, and search within my textbooks. However, I wish the offline access was more reliable.. sometimes, I encounter issues accessing my books without an internet connection. Despite this, it's a solid platform for digital learning.

Bad book quality

I ordered three books that were listed as being in "very good" condition. When they arrived—almost two weeks later—two of them were heavily worn.One even had water damage. Return process was more hassle than it was worth. I appreciate the idea of giving used books a second life, but the quality control needs serious improvement. Won’t be ordering again unless they tighten up their standards.

I’ll definitely shop here again

Grabbed a few mystery novels like Gone Girl and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, plus classics like Pride and Prejudice and To Kill a Mockingbird from worldofbooks.com. The books were in great shape and super affordable. Ordering was easy, and they came fast. I’ll definitely shop here again!

Missing Item after a month,

I’ve been a loyal customer for years, but one of my orders from May never showed up. I’ve sent multiple emails asking about it, and all I get back is “Please wait, it should arrive soon.” Now, I’m not getting any response at all. I ordered a deal where I got 4 items for the price of 3. Three of the items arrived, including the free one, but one of the paid items has been missing for over a month. 😠 Can you please issue me a refund? It’s clear that the missing item was never shipped, and since I paid for it (not the free one), I believe I’m entitled to a refund or a replacement.

Aesthetic Title Only

I've checked it once but only to find popular or best seller books. Not really lots of option and the lists is quite repetitive. The website feels like it's run by one people or few people with same point of view

Not For Me

They only have US or UK books. The options are limited and the shipment also cost me a lot. I tried to ship couple of books before but canceled it since the shipment fee is more expensive than the books itself

Pay Pay Pay

There are not much of free chapter, and they start to use coins to unlock next chapters. Also they sell a full completed series after it's complete, so yes another payment

Indonesian Books Only

I usually use it to order ready stock books that only available in selected bookstore. However even though I've ordered for a few times already, whenever I want to ship the books to my house, the website always asked me to enter my address manually. There is no saved address features

Deliveries Took So Much Time

I'm using this website as I can order or pre order books that is not available in the bookstore yet. But the payment method is limited and even for ready stock books, the delivery took a long time

Great Choice for Readers

Wattpad allows writers to publish stories and readers to explore user-generated fiction for free, fostering creative expression and community interaction. It supports offline reading and interactive comments. However, story quality is inconsistent due to minimal editorial control, and ads in the free version can interrupt reading flow. Still, the monthly subscription is affordable.
