Not enough books

Hello! I have two questions: why in Kazakhstan there no access in searching to different books like in America? And also we don’t have such function as listening audio books….

Costuming text

Extremely frustrated by what happened to ibooks in the ios 16 update.
Reading in the app has become uncomfortable and incomprehensible: customising the text/page (font, colour) has become much more difficult, and paragraphs have for some reason moved closer to the middle of the screen and the text often becomes less readable.

I sincerely request that the text/page customisation be simplified, or returned to the way it was before.

IOS 16 update for iBooks is the worst

The new page turn animation is absolutely awful, please add an option to choose the old one (it was more aesthetically pleasing and gave an illusion of reading a physical book).
Also the close button at the top of the screen is annoying and distracts from reading.
In previous version of the app I very much enjoyed to have a choice in whether to see or not how many pages left till the end of a chapter, please add it back.
