And as for the eReader app, it pains me to say this, but the friendliest app out there is still Moon+. As long as the book is properly coded and follows all epub rules, it should be fine.
I've tried Cool Reader but, on my opinion, it's customizability is its downfall for new users that just want to read.
FBReader is nice, but I find it too plain and not enough options.
CC + eReader app is really the best way to go.
Not many eReaders out there can read, and correctly display the Metadata from an ePub file.
If the OP is going with this route, then the only reader that should be avoided is Aldiko. It automatically imports the ePub file into its own directory and there seem to be no setting to turn this function off.
And as for transferring the convo into a new thread, a passing admin might be able to do that.

CC + an ereader app is also best because all ereader apps have problems at one point or another so it's best to separate your organization app from your reading app. It also allows you to use one app for mobi and a different one for epub. CC will open your ebook with whatever app you choose, but some are not good to use this way. Aldiko for instance creates another copy of your ebook and there's no way to stop it from doing this.
So just use CC to organize your books and use CC to open your books. I keep coming back to Moon+ for epub reading.
