Howdy,

Looking for a (preferably free) eBook reader that supports Series and that I can load epub files into just by copying them to a certain folder on my phone.

I tried FBReader but since there doesn't seem to be any way to get rid of the stupid Intro file that comes up every time I open the app, that's out of the running. Very unfortunately since I liked the program.

Anyway, I would prefer a Bookshelf View that can either display books by Series or that I can manually create "Folders" (or groups or whatever) to organize books manually by their series. Also, it has to remember where they left off if the close the app and then go back in later but I assume all apps do that these days...

I think Aldiko can do this but I think that requires the extra steps of copying epubs to my phone and then manually importing them into Aldiko which isn't a big deal but is an extra step I'd like to avoid.

Are there any other good apps that can do this?

This is going on tablets for my kids so I want it to be as easy to use as possible. Preferably with a Bookshelf view so they can just tap the cover image they want to read.
