I currently use Cool Reader for my reader app having switched from FBReader. I like the fact that Cool Reader presents ALL my SD card options, while FBReader seems to have gone all obtuse on them.
However CoolReader doesn't have a key feature, I can't select a folder and have that as a "Main Library" AND have it search the SUBfolders.
I use Calibre and I have Calibre put books in folders by authors, however I haven't seen any ereader app that reads subfolders yet.

So basically I want to open the app and be presented with ALL the books in the folder/subfolders, not just the recently read. (However keep those at the top.)

I do not want it to "import" to it's own folder. I already have a folder. Mine is good enough. Moon Reader and Adaliko is out as they do this.

I need it to read epub, txt, html, mobi, maybe pdf

If there is a plugin that makes CoolReader do this that'd be nice. So plugins are an option.

I tried setting up FBReader to do this, however it doesn't do the subfolder read either. :c

Is there any reader app that can do this, or is CoolReader pretty much the one.
