This reminds me of what I miss most about Stanza. The Calibre OPDS integration was excellent. It was easy to delete, overwrite and read books directly from the OPDS feed which was perfect for fanfics. It was like having Calibre Companion with a built-in reader (except access to the Calibre server host is read-only so can't update read status on server).

I'm still using Marvin + copy of Calibre library on Dropbox + CalibrePHP server (for when I need more complex view/search).

When downloading through Dropbox, if Marvin encounters a file with the same filename, it asks if you want to overwrite the book unlike the Open in.../Web Browser/OPDS Server behavior that just tells you there's a file with the same name but you still have to manually search for and delete the book.

You might consider MapleRead. I tried it a while back but went back to Marvin because I couldn't disable animations. I should probably try it again as the app developer has added an "Instant" option.
