This. iBooks is heavy with completely useless chrome, like stacks of "pages" that don't reflect your place in the book. This isn't too terrible on an iPad, aside from being completely useless, but on an iPhone/iPod where screen space is limited this extra chrome uses up so much space that it's actually hard to read.
Also, night mode. A
proper night mode, not "Go to accessibility options and choose to invert colors". That inverts all colors, including pictures in books, which is not normally what you want. Ideally iBooks would allow you to set your own foreground/background/link colors (I prefer white-on-black, not Kindle-style dark gray-on-black), but even a hardcoded night mode preset without any other color control would be useful.
Alternatively, Apple should buy Stanza from Amazon and revive it.
