Can any apps group books by series?

Hi,

I have a bunch of epub files that are from various series. Keeper of the Lost Cities, Narnia, Hunger Games, etc. Most eBook apps I've used just show a giant list of book titles with no way of grouping them by series. This makes it hard to find books in the same series unless the book title has the series name in it.

I'd like to have a layout similar to what you can do in a File Explorer where I can have a folder for each series and then have the books inside that folder. It would be much easier to organize things this way and finding book 3 of a series would be very simple.

Are there any apps that can do this?

I know someone mentioned Calibre's Android app once, but I've never used that. I've used Calibre before but don't know how the app works. I need something that is completely offline and doesn't need to sync to a computer so I'm not sure if that would work. I could sync it before we leave, but don't want to have to sync it each time a new book is needed or anything like that.

If I have the epub files organized into folders on the tablet, are there any apps that would show them in that some folder structure within the app?

Anyway, just looking for ideas to make it easy for my kids to find all the books from a series at once so they don't have to go hunting around for them.

Thanks!
