I have never found any desktop ebook reader app which has different profiles, and it’s great to see one. The display adjustments are pretty minimal, but even with the default setting, they look neat and comfortable to see. If you use Windows 8, it won’t look out of place, with its round, monochrome icons and overall Metro UI-inspired interface. Icecream Ebook reader is a very pretty app. Well, that depends on the size of the images inside the archive. cbz file also loads it in fit-to-screen, but clicking the 1.1 button in single-view mode made it fit comfortably to the screen. However, pdf is not a good format for ebooks to start with. I needed to zoom in a couple of times to read comfortably. It would open the pdf in a fit-to-screen mode, which is not at all comfortable. The ebook reader supports popular ebook formats (epub, mobi, prc, and fb2), pdf files, and comic book archives (cbz and cbr). You can also choose between three color profiles to make reading comfortable in different times of day: day, night, and sepia. Using the icons on the top-right corner, you can change the font size, open the table of contents, add bookmarks, change the viewing mode from single column to dual column, and go to full screen mode. You can choose between Bookshelf and Table view.

I chose my collection of manuals from MakeUseOf in epub format.

I love reading, and when I’m not frequenting used book shops and book fairs, I would download free books from sites such as Feedbooks and Project Gutenberg.Īlthough I usually read books on my phone, and use my computer mostly to organize them (using Calibre), I still feel the need to try Icecream Apps’ Ebook Reader.
