Books Widget won’t update


I previewed this book (Broken) and it apparently broke the widget! I’ve removed it from Reading Now and it doesn’t appear when I open the app but I can’t get it off the widget. Not even by opening and starting another book. I’ve removed and readied the widget. I’ve restarted my phone! I don’t know what else to do and I’m sick of looking at this book.

Had the same issue. What helped me is to open Settings -> Books and enable “Background App Refresh”
