Setting a goal to read more is easy — sticking with it is the hard part. Even if you have every intention of finally cracking open a good book, social media is a cruel temptress. Those who are serious about reading more should check out Pearls, a book summary app for iOS.

Pearls boils down nonfiction books so it takes just 15 minutes to read or listen to them. And you can get a lifetime subscription for just $29.99 (regularly $99) during our Cyber Monday sale. You won’t find a better price anywhere else. Plus, a single subscription allows you to use Pearls on all your Apple devices (iOS/iPadOS only).

Crush your reading goals with Pearls book summary app

While reading “real” books is probably what you have in mind when you set your goal, it’s not the most practical thing. It might take you weeks or even months to finish a single book, while it takes only 15 minutes to read or listen to a smart summarization of that same book in the Pearls app.

The book summary app covers a broad range of topics:

  • Personal development and productivity
  • Health and nutrition
  • Money and investments
  • Management and leadership
  • Society and culture

Plus, you can always look forward to new books added on a rolling basis.

Not sure where to start? Explore collections of best-selling titles like Atomic Habits and How to Talk to Anyone.

Those wanting a more personalized experience will appreciate how the Pearls book summary app learns what you like and gives you recommendations about what to read next. You might start to feel like you joined a clever book club!

The nitty gritty details

Just as in the Apple Books app, you can adjust the font size and screen brightness while reading in Pearls. There’s even a dark mode. You also can listen while reading and follow along, or turn the experience into a podcast moment while driving, walking or tidying up around home.

Since you get lifetime access to the book summary app, you won’t feel pressured to use it every single day to get the most out of it. But, if you do read every day, you can keep a learning streak going.

Unbeatable lifetime deal on Pearls book summary app

Other book summary apps exist, but Pearls is one of the cheapest — and we have an unbeatable 69% off deal for Cyber Monday. Pearls works on iPhone and iPad only.
