Hi Reader,

To celebrate Samsung's Galaxy S25 launch, I thought it would be fun to share my favorite book apps on my phone.

Libby

Libby is a library app, and it's an absolute must! This is where I place holds, listen to FREE audiobooks, and send FREE ebooks to my Kindle. Remember to tag new releases, so you get notified when your library adds them to its catalog. It's my secret sauce for avoiding long holds.

Libro.fm

Libro.fm isn't the only audiobook app I have, but it's my favorite because it supports independent bookstores. One of my other favorite features is that your monthly credits never expire. This means I can take a break from my monthly subscription and not worry about losing any credits.

Book of the Month

I don't log onto the Book of the Month app as often as the others, but it's always fun when I do! It always feels exciting the day new books for the month are released. With the app, I can select my picks on the go.

Kindle

While I generally read ebooks on my actual Kindle device, I keep the Kindle app on my phone for when I'm in a pinch-- like when I locked myself outside the other day (facepalm!). I also prefer the app over my device for multicolor books like cookbooks.

PangoBooks

PangoBooks is a new favorite app that allows me to sell my used books and use the credits to buy books. It couldn't be easier to use! It takes less than a minute to list a book, and they email you the shipping label when it sells. Newer Book of the Month books tend to sell the fastest there.

GoodReads

GoodReads is no longer the only reading tracking app on the block, but I've stayed loyal to it because I started using it ten years ago and have input a ton of data since that time, going all the way back to my required reading in high school and even some children's books.

As a reminder from Samsung:
