AA Big Book: Read & Listen

Read and listen to the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, wherever you are. The first 164 pages are here in full, free to read, with everything you need to make the book your own: highlights, notes, bookmarks, search, and audio that follows the words.

READ
• The first 164 pages, with the Preface, the Forewords and The Doctor's Opinion, set like the book and keeping its page numbers.
• Your place is kept. Open the app and carry on from where you stopped.
• Chapters you have finished are ticked, and the one you are in shows how far you have got.
• Light and dark, and the text size that suits you.

MAKE IT YOURS
• Tap any sentence to highlight it, write a note on it, bookmark it, pin it or share it.
• Notes and bookmarks are kept together, each beside the sentence it belongs to.
• Search the whole book and the literature, and open the book at the sentence you find.

LISTEN
• Every chapter read aloud: more than five hours of audio.
• The words follow the reading. Tap a sentence to hear it from there.
• Start from the beginning, from the page you are reading, or from where you stopped listening.
• Change the speed, set a sleep timer, and keep listening with the screen off.
