It jut doesn't make sense to have to change the reading app just because of the partitioned storage.
Where do you get this information? According to the images in message #169 of this thread, it appears that (after installing Nova Launcher) you can choose EITHER Nook or Nova Launcher as your "Home" app at boot-up. What downeaster59 appears to be saying is that books side-loaded to the main memory of the GlowLight 3 via ADB can not be read by the built-in Nook reading app. I don't believe this effects books side-loaded in the traditional way to the 1 GB partition or to books purchased from B&N and loaded into the main partition. If I'm wrong in these assumptions I'm fairly sure downeaster59 will correct me.
