- I then installed Moon+ Pro on the Nexus, and was able to open the book. But the rendition was very poor indeed, apparently because Moon+ ignores the carefully designed CSS in the ebook. I managed to deselect the Moon+ option of ignoring CSS, but it made no difference.
What I need, I think, is an Android ebook reader which is designed for ePub, and will allow me to read an ebook from the folder I've installed on the Nexus. Does anyone have any suggestions? I do NOT want an ereader which is designed to get people to buy from a particular store, and do NOT want an ereader which tries to open every kind of ebook and ignores the CSS.

I don't know if you'll want to do this, but it's an option.
Install nook app. You do have to register. If you don't intend to ever buy from them and don't want to give them your personal info, use a throwaway email.
Put your ePubs in Nook/MyDocuments. In the nook app's library screen, select all items. Your book should show up.
If the formatting does not look quite right, tap the Aa icon and check "publisher defaults". Unfortunately this will disable night mode and your choice of font.
The nook app is a pretty nice, accurate, ePub reader if you don't mind the limited options.
