Pros

Aldiko Book Reader Android App is a bookwarm’s dream! Read your favorite books from your Android phone with clarity and cool features.
Features read progress bars, day/night background themes, swipe/tapp page advance, dictionary lookup, word search, bookmarking, sharing, and settings menu to control screen brightness and more.
Personally I hate reading books unless forced. I can’t remember the last time I voluntarily read an entire book… unless it’s on a monitor… I ain’t reading it! 
But this app easily encourages you to read books on the small screen. BTW, I’m reading H.G. Wells’ The Invisible Man… what are you reading with Aldiko on your Android phone? (Comment Below)

Aldiko Book Reader Android App is very useful, infinitely valuable to those who love to read.
Intuitive… really easy to use… even offers popup help hints.
User dependent, anywhere from sparingly to multiple use daily.
The user interface is sweet (two-fold); the catalog area has a nice modern book shelf theme featuring all your eBooks (reminds me of Borders), when reading a book you have crystal clear and well spaced text.

My only complaint is that there doesn’t seem to be any difference between the Free version and the Premium version. I don’t mind supporting the creator(s), but if you’re going to call it “Premium”, it should be somehow better than the standard version. Also, I’m having a weird bug where titles on the Recent Reads shelf are rendered in spaces and periods.
I like it it’s a nice app
Are there significant differences with FBreader, which is free?
Great app. I haven’t got it to read all of my old epubs just yet, but I think it’s probably just a matter of getting them into the right folder arrangement.
mwd:
There aren’t a whole lot of significant differences. I personally think the interface is much more polished. But Aldiko is free as well, unless you decide to pay for it (the free and paid versions are identical)
Tim, Thanks for the info — I’ll check it out.
This is a brilliant find! Thanks for reviewing the app in such detail. I was quite surprised to find an eBook app for Android (for some reason thought that was the domain of Kindle and other eBook readers) – I think I might try the Art of War (or Disappearing Completely) as they both feature as popular books.
Can you search by book title or are you limited to searching through the titles they have listed? Also, can you read about the book before downloading?
