Who cares about the Windows store? There are at least two programs I know of that should run on the Cambio and display eBooks. One is the older version of FBReader, available for Windows, Linux, and OS/X. The other is the open source SumatraPDF viewer, which displays ePub, Mobi, DjVu, and CBR/CBX (comic book) files as well as PDFs. SumatraDF is Windows only.

But yes, the Fire is an alternative platform she can use for eBooks.

Not FBReader it does a horrible job on formatting. I think Blue Fire has released a reader for Windows although I haven't tried it just the mobile version which was pretty good.

Freda is what I use on my phone. I paid the $1.99 to get rid of ads. It will also work with Windows 10.

There is also Calibre's built in Reader.

Bookviser looks interesting alot like yBook which was I used back in the old days before Microsoft Reader and Mobipocket Reader.
