devinprater, to apple

So I know I shouldn't expect more, but I was just really trying hard to get the hang of the new Books app on the Mac. And I just can't. After a chapter of the new Night Angel book, it would stop reading. That's fine, I'd do the read all command and it'd continue. But then it gets to a point where things break, and the first sentence of the paragraph repeats itself, and the chapter isn't even a part of the "book contents" element anymore. I just... I don't even have it in me to try to write out feedback that's detailed enough to be "actionable." Maybe someone with more patience can do that. Anyway I know that Windows doesn't have an EPub reader or books app of its own. I get it. But my goodness, Apple is supposed to be better than this. Thank goodness I have multiple systems. And yes, I know we have Voice Dream Reader or Speech Central on the Mac. But on the iPhone for many, many years, I didn't need any of that. It felt so much better back then. On iOS 5 or 6 when I could read through a whole book with no issues. And I did just that. I was all into Dark Shadows back then, so read a few books in that universe. It was one of my first iTunes purchases, and my iPod Touch read it perfectly.

"The Fourth Division of the the IX Corps, which was comprised of USCT regiments, were the last to enter the action. In this, their first engagement, they advanced farther than any other Federal unit. The counterattack ...drove back the USCTs and plugged the gap in the Confederate line." [Courtesy of the National Park Service]
