Are you sure by the way that this is the same project? I couldn't find any references prior to 2016. Even if the project had been imported to github from somewhere else, usually there'll be traces of that.

Odd, a quick Google search came up with multiple references to Bookworm prior to 2016.
Check the following links:
BookWorm This link is from after the switch to github/weblate.
Is there an epub reader that integrates well with elementary OS?
The earliest reference (in Italian with the same Romeo and Juliet screenshot that many references to Bookworm use) seems to date from 2011:
BookWorm, il nuovo ebook reader di elementary OS!.
A reference to Bookworm and the development stall which matches up with my memory:
‘GNOME Books’ Promises User-Friendly eBook App for Desktop Users
Given the number of references to 'babluboy' in various links, I would tend to believe that the Bookworm referenced is the same app with a very slow development cycle which makes sense given the author is working on Bookworm in his spare time. A commodity which all too often is hard to find.
