BueNovela & leer novela libro
reviews and complaints

I love this reading app! It’s very similar to another one I use, but so far some of the chapters are cheaper here on this app! I love the selection of books, have found several so far I want to read! They even allow you more chances of earning coins by watching adds. The only thing I might offer as a suggestion would be another app offers 20 coins/points a day EVERYDAY for check in & an additional 5 coins/points for second check in! But when you figure that the chapters are cheaper & you get more turns to watch adds it’s probably balanced out to about the same if not more coins/points!

I am an author, and if I depended on this app, I’d give it a -5*. Takes way too long to try and log in, and then nothing happens. These “coins” you have to “earn” just to read is ridiculously ridiculous. Sorry. I don’t know who you guys are who made this app, but it is not at all what I expected. When I read, I expect apps to at least work. If it doesn’t, I delete it. I have deleted it, and there was a book that I started to read which was really good except that it was not edited at all, and I might have read more, but because the app is totally unreliable, I won’t be DL it again.

For me I like getting lost in certain books. The stories have to really have me imagine myself in them for me to read. I can read a whole book non stop if it has me truly hooked. I give the ones I do read a 5 star for truly grabbing my attention.

With that being said I would really just like a one time subscription to truly have myself to keep reading. I enjoy the books so much that at one time I have six different books I am reading at once and most time I spend so much on trying to get coins or buy that I would love to finish a full book before starting another to keep my interest going.

This app runs off of a coin system to read chapters. They offer ‘bonus’ as a coin option for checking in & watching ads. One option to gain bonuses is to read on their platform for 30 minutes. It would be nice if this option actually worked properly. It doesn’t matter how long you read on the platform because it will not recognize the time spent reading. Some occasions it works & others it does not. Other big fixes, such as, the option to not auto-open chapters need to be fixed. It doesn’t matter how many times you check that box because it doesn’t work. I would use a different platform if I were you.

I don’t understand how you expect people to use the app when you have made it about money. It’s like no matter how many coins I buy they are gone in a flash. I’m not going to keep paying for more coins just for them to be useless. The idea of the app is great and I love reading, but when you make it more about “well you have to purchase more coins to continue to read” it makes me not want to use it at all. Especially when there are other free alternatives. I could’ve bought 4 hard cover books for what I’ve spent on the dumb coins. Deleting the app it’s definitely not worth your time unless you want to just blow through money.

Books are good, I’ve read two so far. Grammar is not good though, makes it hard to read sometimes. Also I shouldn’t have to pay so much per chapter. I’ve put over $100 into reading one book. If I’m paying that kind of money, I should just be able to buy the whole book instead of reading chapter by chapter when the books themselves aren’t worth that much with all the grammar issues and spelling errors. I understand these people should get paid, but it’s a bit too much to ask of people to pay that much per chapter. And the chapters aren’t even that long. It’s disappointing. I do love the books I’ve read though, no doubt about that.

Fated to the alpha series is what got my attention in an ad on Facebook, so downloaded the app to continue reading.

This is a great ap for authors who are just starting out as they can get feedback from their readers and see how their stories effect, inspire, etc.

My complaint with this app as I'm sure many others have said is the coins. Coins are not easy to come by and some chapters are not cheap... I spent way more then I should have on the series that got me on here, do I regret it? No, but won't do it again lol. If you have patience to take the time to earn the coins I highly recommend this app to you, and I recommend the series mentioned.

I read 3 books on here so far and I must say I love them ! Yeah it’s a little costly but so what ! I don’t mind it. Right now I’m reading alphas regret and Alpha Asher, Alpha Asher I love the story line, I get sad when there aren’t more chapters, because it’s ongoing but I found Alpahs regrets omg they are both very good books, I cannot put my phone down! The other book was fated to an Alpha, it is a very good book also but it kind of started turning more childish for a Alpha stand point so I kind of stopped reading it but each book has its own storyline and crazy events. I love how each book it about Being fated to a Alpha but they all have there own storylines!

I’m all for paying writers for their creation but this app is just highway robbery. I did the math and to finish the book I started in which there are 279 chapters left, I need 9,207 coins. I would need to but the $99.99 pack of 10,000 coins which “generously” includes an extra 5,000. This is assuming the cost per chapter is 33 coins each (i just completed one chapter and it wants 33 for the next one), but maybe the cost increases per chapter. I’d still have close to 6,000 coins left to start another book, but at that rate each book would be about $70 each. Just crazy. I can buy a paperback for less than $10 and it’s edited… these books have copy errors all over them. Not for me.

I have loved this app but it’s taken forever for the writers to update chapters & that can be so frustrating waiting weeks for a new chapter to drop , especially when the author says the chapters will be updated the next day & then they don’t & this happens repeatedly. I’d understand if it were a once in a while thing - everyone has their own life & people get writers block but when it happens over & over & over the excuses just get old . And as far as the app their HORRIBLE about responding to their customers when there is a need to send them a message. But they do have some amazing books that I have throughly enjoyed reading . Overall it’s a decent app just try to read books that are compete already !

It’s a great app for readers, the font is easy going and being able to change between light and dark mode is p sweet for the reading till 2 am people (me). My only real issue is how expensive some of the chapters can be coin wise. Like I don’t mind watching a video or two per chapter, but sometimes you need 15 or more to have enough coins to watch. I don’t mind supporting the app, that’s just my only issue with it as an impatient person.

My other thing would be an extreme desire to make it easier to write on the app. I know the bouncing to the site is probably a formatting thing, but I would appreciate everybody having the opportunity to write. I may just be not wholy understanding the gui for the writing part of the site but yeah.

All in all, good app, good stories on it.

I really wanted to like this app. The story I started reading was really good and I like swiping like I was turning the page but then it said I needed to buy coins to unlock the next chapter so I bought some. Next thing I know it says I’m out of coins! You would think that they would ask you if you would like to use more coins but no it just takes them away with each page/chapter you read. Then there’s “bonus rewards” you can check in every day and get some, watch videos, etc. but no where does it say where to spend the bonus points. Only information is how to get more bonus points and no where to use them! All in all I gave it 2 stars because the story I was reading was really good but it feels like a scam because if you really wanted to read just one story it can get expensive and that’s wrong in my opinion.

So I’m general I love this app. Gives you access to so many stories and easy to operate. My only issue is the cost is too much. The book I am currently reading each chapter is 11-15 pages but it’s phone size pages and in fairly big text. And each chapter is 25-42 coins/bonuses points. So you either have to pay to get those or do rewards. But the rewards are so low it takes forever to get enough. I bought one package at $9.99 for 1000 coins and 150 bonuses. It didn’t even get me through half the book. Maybe like 35% through. I don’t want to pay again because another $10 won’t even get me through the rest of the book and I don’t want to pay over $20 just to finish it. So beware you’ll get hooked on a book then either pay a high price or be checking in daily and doing all the bonus videos (only earns you 3 bonus points).

As an author I completely understand wanting to get your book out there. But apps like these are truly taking advantage of readers! You start out with enough chapters to get you hooked, great idea I’ll give you that, but then you have to either pay for or earn coins. I was willing to look over the spelling errors as the story was good enough to do so. But you’d think they’d offer to allow ppl to buy the entire book for a certain amount of coins rather than 3 page chapters for coins that go up with every chapter. I’m sure they’re making a killing! Taking advantage of ppl. If you expect ppl to read chapter by chapter then you’d think you’d at least offer the authors ways to get their books edited, teach them the proper way to set up a book rather than allowing them to release books with many editing errors and some not set up for book format on a normal app. Do better, seriously! Allow readers to buy entire books, teach the authors and help them learn so they can get better and better!

REPOST. Stop deleting my review. ‍♀️

Are you looking for an app with mediocre juvenile writing skills for books that contain 100-3,000 chapters and cost $75.00-$200 to read?! Stories with absolutely no professionalism or plots?! LOOK NO FURTHER. Download this scam today! Don’t worry though, if you don’t have the money, you can also earn rewards for about a month or 2 and maybe get to unlock 2 or 3 chapters max! Sweet deal right?
But wait, there’s more! There’s also amazing promotions that are available as soon as you open the app. They promote that you have earned 500-900 coins for FREE. That’s right people, free coins by the bucket load! Check out those offers and ignore the pesky little $9.99/$19.99 purchase order to obtain those said coins even though they were supposed to be free but who’s really reading that nonsense, am I right?
I love this app! If I was a professional scam artist I would definitely work for BueNovella. But enough about ripping off people. Download this app today!

The book seems to be good, the only problem I have is after paying to read, after each chapter I have to stop because it is requesting I rate the book.. After being disappointed continuously I requested full payment and have yet to receive it.. My advice to anyone that has downloaded this app is to uninstall immediately it is a total waste of time and money… I didn’t notice until after I paid that the app says something about it being Arregular which I guess is suppose to be Irregular which means there are problems with this app.. I feel that this is a scam,, again I am requesting a full refund and advising everyone not to download or if you have please uninstall…This company has the audacity to urge the readers to engage in a Christmas special to get bonus points and I can’t continue reading after I paid for it and requested a refund on the payment I made for the book Merman My Man, not receiving acknowledgment nor an apology. As I stated earlier that this is indeed a scam, taking hard earned dollars and making false promises to the consumer.. I will look further into how to report this bogus company…

I love the stories but I wish there was a way of getting rid of the coin base not proud of it but my husband and I live paycheck to paycheck and I’m a bookaholic I love to read and I have multiple apps and also have audible I work from home and I’m pretty much a shut in. I have two daughter 4 dogs with the coin base apps here I have a hard time being able to finish a book or if I do finish I almost don’t want to start a new one cause it’s so expensive this app yes the coins per chapter in less than normal but when one book cost close to 30$ usd due to having to pay per chapter that gets pricey I read 1-3 books a day in my spare time depending on the day and how my toddler is acting. The only complaint I have for a lot of these reading apps in because of the money paid in to it. Maybe they could do a monthly subscription that would help support the app and even if you do like Hulu dose and pay a smaller amount but have a ad every couple of chapters or pay a higher price for no ads I love ready books from new authors sometimes you can’t find these types of books anywhere els. So I love most of the books I read but I hate having to pay so much for them including with the economy the way it is.

First, the good: it’s easy to use, lots of different genres, easy to find something to read. I like that the first few chapters are free, to see if you want to continue, and I like that you can change the color, font and text size.
Now, the negative: I don’t like that the ‘free’ coins tasks- reading for 30 minutes to receive 10 coins- doesn’t tally the time. I have read for 1.5 hours, and it gave me 17 minutes. It wasn’t a one off. It’s happened several times. I feel like the app is built to miscalculate it so the reader doesn’t receive the ‘free’ coins.
Also, the chapters aren’t a uniform price. If you auto into the next chapter, the app charges your credit card on file in the App Store without notifying you.
Last, the books don’t seem genuine. There are many odd misspellings, grammatical and syntax errors. It’s almost like a program is writing or editing the books. I’ve read samplings of a dozen or so books—they all overuse the word smirk which is strangle annoying. Lol. Ultimately I deleted the app, as I was unable to read due to working 2 jobs, but I went in and attempted to collect my daily coins, they just disappeared out of my bank. I don’t want to do business with a business that is dishonest about the way they do things.

I have been trying to leave a review for this app for over 30+ minutes now on my phone where I sometimes use this app but it still won’t allow me to so I’m using my husbands phone to do it! This app is EXTREMELY OVER PRICED! I found this out the hard way & got wrapped up in a book that started out with free chapters and then you are supposed to be allowed to get free bonus points for checking in daily etc etc but 1 of the ways that it offers free bonus points is to Check-In Again on the Website, I have tried to do that every single time that I read and NEVER ONCE has it allowed it but instead just denies me the ability every time! Plus when on the website it switches everything to Spanish but I can’t read or speak Spanish and it says I have it set to English! Also you would think that with the ridiculous amount of money that I’ve been charged to read a book on this app that the Authors should be required to edit and spell check their work! Most of the time if a book is obviously written that poorly you can tell early on in the free chapters but like the current book (which will also be the VERY LAST BOOK that I read on this app if things don’t improve) I’m reading some chapters will seem like they are being checked & edited and then others will be so confusing because I’m having to guess what word they meant to use because the spelling is so atrocious that I simply have no clue what it is supposed to say or even worse when they are using the wrong characters name or just keeps changing the name every couple of chapters! It’s insane how we are being charged so much money way more than the actual cost of a Edited & published book even cost! Y’all really need to get this fixed and start charging appropriately for a freaking book

What. Total scam..READ FREE MY ASSETS. 5 chapters in and its $$$$$ Coins are only good for 30 days, bonus won’t load. NO I TERNET ACCESS.. yet the story downloads. Yall a bunch of thieves and liars. $100 for one BOOK. SCAM SCAM SCAM.

Be careful this app likes to charge you more than what you choose for top up. And this time they pulled the funds for my top up and they didn’t give me my coins. It’s been 3 days and I’m still waiting for a response or the coins that I purchased.

This is being advertised as an opportunity to read for free. However it is anything but. On top of that, the books are not well written and very costly. Most books at the store cost you about $10-15/ and this is way more for a low quality written product.

It’s not bad. It is expensive and you can never find the name of the stories they advertise on Facebook. They don’t make it easy to earn coins for the chapters either. It always comes back to buying more and more coins. Good reads just disappointed in price.

They don’t tell you that one book on this app is 10790 coins, 10,000 coins cost $99.99 US dollars.
The chapters are very short and they charge 30-50(ish) coins for each chapter. So for what would cost you $10 or less on Amazon or Google is costing you $100 on here.

This app was advertised on FB as completely free! So I downloaded it and started reading. But guess what…it is NOT FREE!
I get to a certain point in a book and it wants me to buy coins…NOT!
Oh keep rebasing books and you will get points…NOT!
Should have known better!

For the first top up purchase I made with this app, I agreed to buy coins + bonus of what is worth only $4.99 which I end up getting charged of $16.25 to my bank account, I hope the app developer would make the corrections and credit me back what I had wrongly being charged for.

i loves a book called unwanted mate. where a law was made where all rogues had to go to a pack school and the main girl found her mate but she didn't want him. but then i deleted the app on accident and now after reinstalling it i can't find the book and it made me mad. that's the only bad thing about the app.

Way to expensive. I found a book I was interested in and spent $10 to unlock chapters and didn’t even make it half way. You can watch 3 ads to get more points but it doesn’t give you enough to unlock most chapters same with the daily check in points. I don’t like have to wait one or more days to read one chapter.

I got sucked into a book and love it, however I’ve already used 1500 coins, which was $9.99. I’m on chapter 48 and there’s 286 total chapter.. For me to finish this is going to cost more than just outright buy a few books which those wouldn’t have a grammatical errors like these and I would know the cost before hand.

This is one of the better reading apps. But I purchased some coins. And got charged twice. I messaged them and it said they would get back to me within 72 hours. No response from them after 4 days. Some of these books are getting published with Amazon. Don’t wast your money on this app that doesn’t even have customer service.

I love this app BUT if I can’t follow the Authors that I like and the stories they write then I will absolutely be deleting this! Too much junk to sort through. When you find a good author you want to be able to see their work and I could before but now it’s just gone! Disappointing to say the least! Only giving 1 star for that very reason!

Read an intro to a book in a Facebook ad ONLY because it clearly stated that you can read the entire novels for free. Very misleading, because there is no way to read more than 1 chapter per day by earning free points by watching ads. And even if you pay to purchase points, you will spend wayyy more than if you bought a whole book new on Amazon.

I've spent over $15 and have yet to be able to finish a book. Very disappointed. I was really enjoying the story but the price per page or chapter is crazy. These are not best selling authors. The books are not worth the $15 I've already spent and I can't even finish the boom without paying who knows how much more money. Very disappointing.

I downloaded it to read a book and live it thus far but super annoyed that I have to continue buying coins to read I didn’t mind paying the first time 4.99 for 500 coins bc it said I needs 12 coins for the next section, but then the next section came up mind you I only used 12 of the 500 coins but it said I only had 36 left and I would have to buy more coins that’s annoying

You can check-in, watch ads, and read to earn free coins, but mine keep disappearing before I can open a new chapter. I had 37 and went to open a chapter that cost 35 and it told me I had insufficient coins. It took my 35 and left me with 2, but did NOT open a chapter. I was trying the app before purchasing any coins to see how it worked. I won’t be wasting my money. Zero stars is too many.

Very sneaky app (borderline scam). I thought I’d purchased the book for some coins, only to realize that each chapter automatically charges more coins.

Total price to read the whole book will end up much much more expensive than simply buying for Kindle or another e-reader.

And the book I got hooked on was easily available via Amazon, so it’s not exclusive content. Given the many grammar errors, I suspect the app owners may be scanning in books available elsewhere. Very suspect.

Save your money- just look for the book at a legitimate source.
