Sure. The old Marvin/Calibre solution with two way syncing sure was nice and several of us kept pushing the Marvin developer and plug-in developer (I think he was actually someone who had taken the code that the original plug-in developer had posted and modified it to keep it working for a while) to get together to find a new solution, but it never happened. I don't think that Marvin or the iOS version are under active development at this time, though the android version is. There is a very active forum for it here.

Yes, there are certain things about iBooks/Books that I don't like. That's why I use the CC/Marvin combination. It does most of what I need it to do. The only thing that I really miss is the percent read and finished reading sync.
