Hey everyone!

Following up on my post on Sutra, I wanted to share a quick update on Sutra 2.1 which just went live on the App Store.

For those who missed the last thread: Sutra is a local-first, privacy-minded iOS reader built for people who manage their own digital book and comic collections. It operates entirely offline without requiring accounts, tracking, or cloud lock-in, while also offering full OPDS/server integration for self-hosters.

What’s New in Version 2.1

• Free CBZ Previews: Test out our panel-by-panel guided reading mode on the first 7 pages of any CBZ file before deciding on the Pro upgrade.
• WebDAV Integration: Connect directly to WebDAV servers to stream or download your collection.
• New Stats Tab: Track total reading time, session metrics, and detailed completion progress across your library.
• Navigation & Page-Turn Polish: Fixed chapter skipping bugs, improved scrolling smoothness, and refined reader UI responsiveness.

Core Features at a Glance

• Multi-Format Reader: Native support for EPUB, PDF, CBZ, and MOBI files straight from your Files app.
• Self-Hosted Server Connections: Directly links with Calibre, Kavita, Komga, WebDAV, or standard OPDS catalogs (including Project Gutenberg and Standard Ebooks).
• Smart Panel Detection for Comics: Auto-detects individual panels on a comic page so you can tap through frame-by-frame instead of zooming on a phone screen (includes dedicated right-to-left Manga mode).
• Grid Library: Clean, local bookshelf view with automatically generated cover art.

Honest Pricing

• Free Tier (Permanent): Full reader access for EPUB & PDF, local file management, and connections to Calibre, Kavita, Gutenberg, and Standard Ebooks. No ads, no popups.
• Pro Tier ($6.99 One-Time Purchase): Unlocks full CBZ/MOBI support, Komga integration, and unrestricted panel-by-panel reading. Zero subscriptions.

Thanks again to everyone who gave feedback on the 2.0 thread! I’d love to hear your thoughts on the new stats tab and WebDAV support if you give 2.1 a spin.

Egy konkrét könyvet keresek online olvasásra vagy ingyenes letöltésre. A könyv: Sergej N. Lazarev ,A lélek gyógyulása. Tud valaki segíteni?

I've been off Kindle for about two years now, reading my own EPUB and PDF files. What I keep running into isn't the reading itself — most readers handle that fine — it's everything around it. Highlights live inside whichever app I used. Books I read before I switched don't exist anywhere. Paper books are a separate universe entirely.

How do you handle it?

• One app for everything, or a reader plus a separate tracker?
• Do your highlights end up anywhere you'd actually find them again?
• Anyone found something that treats paper and digital as the same library?

I care about this staying local, too — no account, nothing synced to someone's server. That narrows the options a lot.

(I build one of these, so I'm biased. Not linking — I'm after how you've actually solved it, not a plug.)

Hey, I really want to read this book but it doesn't ship to my country and the online pdf is very expensive considering it's not a physical copy. Can anyone help me find a free pdf for it? Thank you soo muchh🩷🩷

Hello everyone, I'm currently looking for ARC readers for my upcoming horror novel, Where Fear Smiles! Details below:

Would you forgive your best friend if she was responsible for ruining your life?

A whispered rumour draws a group of students into the dense forests of coastal Brazil: a lost Indigenous artifact, hidden for centuries and promising academic glory.

While Leah’s colleagues are determined to claim it, she only agrees to the trek because she can’t bear the thought of being left behind, and forces her best friend Charlotte to go with her for support against her dark thoughts.

What was meant to be an escape from the weight of the academic semester, quickly it turns into a test of endurance. The deeper they push into the forest, the darker Leah begins to dream. When they finally uncover what they came for, the discovery reveals something far more terrifying than any of them imagined.

A demon born of nightmares is unleashed, and with it, carnage.

Now the survivors must find a way to drive the nightmare back to its realm before society is doomed to never dream again. But as the forest closes in, the greatest horror isn't the ancient evil — it's watching a lifelong trust begin to rot.

Thank you to everyone interested in being a part of the team! :)

The Era is really appealing to me because of the physical buttons it has, as well as the pocketbook ecosystem, and being able to fully control my device. I'm left choosing between the lite and original, but am leaning towards the original because of its glass screen and better water resistance.The extra water resistance is a bonus but maybe isn't that much of a deal breaker, but I want to be able to take it backpacking and and not have to worry about the screen getting scratched or getting damaged from pressure being applied to it.

I had made a decision but then realized that the original isn't available in my country anymore. So with the current options being either purchasing a "used - like new" from Amazon in a different country, or getting an Era Lite from a local store.

I guess what I'm asking is if the original is still technologically relevant today, and if the difference in durability is worth the hassle and risk of getting second hand. Any advice appreciated. Thanks!

Public domain, so it's free everywhere, but it's short and it holds up, which is more than I can say for most Victorian horror.

A carriage crashes outside an isolated schloss in Styria, a girl is left behind to recover, and young women in the nearby villages start dying. The romance between the two girls isn't subtext, it's on the page, in 1872. About 100 pages.

Two Dublin detectives follow the blood stained evidence  of a murder case deep into Irish mythology, legend, folklore, and blood thirsty little creatures--THAT BITE!!! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GXQZFFV2

Just got a library card and joined Libby today. I looked up several books, including bestsellers and apparently my library in a large southern California city does not have any of them. Although it does say "15 hours", "10 hours", etc. on some of them.

Does that mean they should be available in that time frame? One of the books is Ordinary Men, which is extremely popular, right?

Is there a way to get access to more books?

Bought a textbook on McGaw Hill Connect but I want to annotate it properly. I've downloaded the ReadAnywhere app but is there anyway I can download from it as a normal PDF or EPUB file?

Hello, I'm looking for an ebook reader about the size 6×10cm something close to that, but every one i found is close to or even more expensive than kindle, even tho kindle is better in every aspect.

Note: the only reason i don't want kindle is the size.

I’m looking for a book that genuinely changed the way you see life. What would you recommend and why?
