Jekyll and mr. Hyde treasure island all kinds of stuff and you can download these this is a constantly being dated library you can download these right here free of charge over the air and it only takes a couple minutes so to show you that let's grab 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea we're going to download it and i'll show you the status bar there so right there really quick let's go back and look at that 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea I'll tap on that here you go let's jump to chapter 10 the man of the sea and now there's my text it's all very easily scrolled if i want to go to the next chapter i can 11 chapter 12 just by swiping side to side that's a feature I haven't seen on very many ebook readers and I really like it here so if you're looking for a religious ebook reader this is an awesome one very very good if you're looking for just a generic ebook reader for public domain books or maybe you want to make your own ebooks you can do that easily as well with third-party tools for your desktop that will let you compile your books into the ybk format so it's worth giving a look I like it it's something that I've had on my android since the very very beginning their first version in fact and I'm really impressed with it so if you like this video please give us a thumb up if you have any suggestions or recommendations for other ebook readers go ahead and leave us some comments below and if you would like to stay up to date with other apps like this and with other videos along the mobile computing line of thought go ahead and subscribe to our Channel so again for pocket now calm I'm Joe Levi
