iBook is certainly a good app. Even though it's dead easy to convert just about anything to sPub via Calibre, I still prefer my FB2 format eBooks. As such, I have found readMe to be one of the best FB2 reading apps around for the iPad.
As it doesn't yet have a built-in dictionary I work around this on the iPad by just going to a dictionary app (free) and looking up any words I need. A few more steps than having it in the app itself, but unlike most other eBook readers the iPad is hardly cumbersome to switch between apps and look up a word.
