Read E-books with Cool Reader
Productivity Sauce
The Cool Reader ebook reader really lives up to its name: it's probably the best cross-platform ebook reader out there. Cool Reader runs on Windows, Linux, and Android devices, and the application supports a wide range of ebook formats, including EPUB, FB2, TXT, RTF, and HTML.
The application can handle table of contents and the application supports bookmarks, text search, and hyphenation (it comes with hyphenation dictionaries for several languages). Cool Reader is blazingly fast, even when dealing with large files: it handles a 20MB richly-illustrated epub file on Android with aplomb. You can tweak virtually every aspect of Cool Reader, from page background and page margins to alternative fonts and external stylesheets. All in all, you'll be hardly pressed to find a better cross-platform ebook reader.
