I love that I can read on my phone, I hate that buying new ebooks is such a PITA now. I understand why, but it's annoying as all get-out. Also...the reading speed idea has potential, but has not been implemented effectively, it's wildly inaccurate. Takes half the time to finish a chapter/book as its estimate, and I've read SO MANY books since this was implemented that if it actually "learned," it would have by now. I do like the "pages left in chapter" bit, though.

So many improvements! The best of which, for me, is putting my current read and my library in different windows. FANTASTIC, especially on a 2-screen device. Some annoying bugs were also squashed. :) One improvement I'd like to see is the ability to widen just the space between columns, without changing the outside margins. Another (and perhaps more important) is the ability to swipe on the left side of the screen to turn the page, not just the right side. When I hold my tablet in my other hand.

There was a glitch that wouldn't let you turn the page or even go backwards in any book you chose but I fixed it. Still a great app I've surprisingly never had a problem so far so curious yet not sure why everyone else is having a problem. Mine was just a crash but if you guys in the reviews have a problem with the app then either Uninstall and come back or restart the phone. Restarting it completely fixed the crash problem I just had. Everything else is fine.
