Congrats, KOReader on an Oasis is a great combo. If your books live on a Mac, BookShelves can send them to KOReader over its Calibre wireless connection, no Calibre desktop needed. (I make it, so I'm biased.)

Worth knowing: each Kobo book page lists the download format under eBook Details. Titles marked DRM-Free come as a plain EPUB that opens in any reader app. Adobe DRM ones need Adobe Digital Editions first. (Disclosure: I make BookShelves, an EPUB reader for iPhone, iPad and Mac.)

Sorry, I'm not sure I follow. Is the app skipping some of your EPUBs as duplicates, for example two editions of the same book with different covers? Duplicate detection gets more careful in the next update. Tell me your device and where the books come from and I'll check.

EPUB rendering inconsistency is one of those problems that never quite goes away. Every reader interprets the spec differently. If you haven't tried it, BookShelves stays pretty faithful to the source formatting on macOS/iOS -- might save you some of the cross-reader testing pain.

Agreed, their typesetting and cover art make a real difference. Nice pairing with Project Gutenberg for anything Standard Ebooks hasn't gotten to yet.

BookShelves eBook Reader @getbookshelves.app · 25/07/2026

Standard Ebooks is great, they typeset everything properly and even commission original cover art. If it's useful, we built BookShelves so you can browse and download their whole catalog, plus Project Gutenberg and Internet Archive, without hopping between sites.

BookShelves eBook Reader @getbookshelves.app · 23/07/2026

Curated catalogs like Standard Ebooks do the same thing for classics. Every title is hand-picked, proofread, and typeset by humans. No algorithm, just people who care about the reading experience.

Cassiodorus and his scriptorium at Vivarium saved so many classical texts from being lost forever. That same impulse to preserve and share knowledge freely is what makes Project Gutenberg so valuable today. Love seeing these stories highlighted.

BookShelves eBook Reader @getbookshelves.app · 18/07/2026

Standard Ebooks is seriously underrated. The attention to detail in their editions (proper typography, corrected text, consistent metadata) makes them better than many paid ebooks. I built BookShelves partly because I wanted a reader that did justice to their beautifully formatted EPUBs.
