It's just OK. No way to edit document or file info such as title or author like other readers allow. Reading view is good and easy to work around, but I'd describe the main library interface as "nerdy", showing a lot of options and controls without a lot of effort to clean or streamline the UI. It works, it does most of what I like, and the problems aren't deal-breakers.

Feature request and great review! I have one small request. Using my 10-in Android tablet, I can only hold on to the very small edges without scrolling a page around or moving to the next page. If you could add dead zones, gutters if you will, to the edges, left and right so that fingers can overlap the text slightly before getting closer to the middle and activating selection or page turn features. Ignore inputs on the left and right edges if within 20% of the edge as an option.

You can configure left and right finger size in the advanced preferences from the book setting.

It's good. But, detecting some starts and stops for sentences leaves it inconsistent and the voice is pretty robotic. My main issue is that it can't read with blank space along the center of a page which is common for textbooks in PDF form. It can't seperate the two sections and reads the different paragraphs merged as one. If this was improved, it'd be a major study tool for busy college students on the go.
