Gutenberg Reader + Many Books

This is the kind of little app that I love: it is focused on helping with a specific problem, and it provides a surprisingly powerful tool to help me deal with that. If you’re looking for help preparing your taxes or fixing dinner…well, this app isn’t designed for that. If being able to adjust the text*, make notes, and manage a small library of books on your phone is what you’re looking for this app will be just what you need. * About adjusting the text: the teams of VOLUNTEERS who scan books for Project Gutenberg or other sources of FREE books have no idea what size the screen on your device is. There are occasionally issues which they do the best they can to correct when they learn about them. If the font size or style is changed additional problems may occur. While I understand that artifacts from the scanning process or errors caused when the text is adjusted can be frustrating I think we should remember the designer of this app really isn’t responsible for our woes. THIS APP IS WELL WORTH DOWNLOADING.

It didint really have any of the book I wanted, which I guess is my problem because I was looking for Alex rider crocodile tears and I can find it anywhere except for Libby and someone is already borrowing it. The desighn is very nice but it was a little complicated, for me at least. Pretty good, might recommend.

Unfortunately, this app has trouble searching Project Gutenberg's website. I asked it for "Three Men in a Boat" and it found everything EXCEPT Three Men in a Boat. When I asked it to look for Jerome K. Jerome (who wrote Three Men in a Boat) it didn't give me the option of looking for the author of that name; it just started feeding me books both by and about Mr. Jerome, as well as a few that seemed totally off-topic. Forget about this reader; you don't need it either to download or to read books from Project Gutenberg. There's a better app already out there; it's named "Project Gutenberg." It's free; it's easy to find; and it works seemlessly with the Project Gutenberg website, making it easy to find, download, and read the books you want.
