What's New
1. A new Home screen featuring your recent reading activity and monthly stats.

2. Easier access to key terms, author info and public notes directly from your book’s menu.

3. Expanded support for books and magazines with built-in media, such as graphics and videos.
After a very quick look, I like the changes. The home page works a lot like on the e-ink readers. The stats page looks good. It has a little to much pink for my taste. But, I guess that would change if I read something other than books.

One thing, which I think I mentioned before: How do I tell if a book is a preview in the library? On the home page, it has "Preview" at the bottom of the tile. But, I can't see any difference in the library view. And opening the details doesn't show anything. It doesn't even have a way to buy the book! When I first looked, I didn't notice the "preview" on the home page and it was only when I opened and read to the end that there was any indication that the book was a preview.
