Unfortunately, it isn't. The last time Amazon upgraded Stanza was a couple of years ago or so, for iOS 5. Stanza on iOS 6 is partly dysfunctional -- it's crippleware today. (It crashes whenever you touch 3 of its 4 settings buttons.)

ShuBook tries hard, and its developer strikes me as a nice, hard-working guy, but ShuBook is not on a par with Stanza, and especially now Marvin -- not by a long shot. Marvin, already today, is 10 times better than Stanza ever was; and ShuBook still needs to catch up with Stanza first.

A crucial feature missing in ShuBook are annotations. Without annotations, any e-reader software is useless for me.

ShuBook has also struggled with opening/displaying some EPUB files properly (skipping chapters, etc.), and it even fails at the proper display of this basic formatting EPUB test file:

I agree with your request, maxjens, but Kris is already working on Marvin for iPhone, and space for buttons is at a premium. Kris wants the Marvin version for iPhone to offer the exact same advanced features as Marvin for iPad does, and this will be a nightmare to achieve, given the iPhone's much smaller screen size. It might become difficult to add additional buttons to Marvin's current interface. (Not difficult on the iPad, perhaps, but very much so on the iPhone.)

I'm confused here as well. What do you mean by "book screen"?

Absolutely. In Marvin 1.4, there'll be a special new, virtual folder called Reading List, into which you can put any books to which you always wish to have quick access.
