Good app.. Could be improved..

It’s a great app, especially when dealing with .chm files. Runs very smoothly on both iPhone and iPad. Some improvements could be done: especially more colour themes such as Sepia (cool for the eyes) and collection views of books (cover page display instead of title of the book and author’s name).
Favorite UI of any reader. Would be nice to have more features

Choose from six page colors to make reading your own, independently of your typography theme. Use light or dark appearance, or let it follow your device.
Fixed page turning by tapping the left or right side when reading horizontal text in paged mode.
