You know what... I thought this microlearning book summaries thing would be dumb. But I find myself reaching for it a lot when I'm doing a quick task and I just let it play on and on, there hasn't been much I haven't found interesting on it, and most of the readers are engaging and have decent reading voices. The platforms really well put together and the content suggestions are on point. Not sure I'd have ever gotten it had I not gotten a black Friday deal, but I'm glad I did.

The concept is excellent -- you listen to a brief book summary to get the key ideas. If interested, you can read the complete book, knowing what to expect. It's also great for reviewing the books you read a long time ago. I have only minor gripes: the interface feels a little cluttered, the app loses my position, and at least some of the blink transcripts look AI-generated without proofreading. These problems, however, aren't critical.

In the beginning,I was disappointed about the short reflection period, however, customer support showed understanding and helped me with a refund. I give four stars for the following reason: Blinkist can be the perfect solution for me if it pauses after each blink (or two) instead of playing all back to back as it fades into some white noise, constantly narrating for long, since I use it mostly as audio book. Each blink often consoldiates an important point the author made and deserves a moment.
