CloudReaders also comes with a "cloud bookshelf", where you can download public domain books and comics for free (the number of books is small at this moment, but we are going to add a lot of books soon).
Those books on "cloud" bookshelf are books prepared by volunteers and supporters, which include public domain PDF books optimized for iPad screen as well as free or sample publications provided by authors and publishers.
If you are interested in participating to this "cloud bookshelf" effort, please contact [email protected] (or just send PDF files).

Still going strong

This app is my go-to for ebooks, especially for comics. I prefer its simple, no-frills, alphabetical interface. Works great in iOS13.
Unfortunately not compatible with iPad OS 13.1

It’s good, easy to use. But, unfortunately it is NOT compatible with iPad OS 13.1!!
No longer displaying correctly!!!!

I was using CloudReaders regularly and within the past 1-2 mos I have not been able to use it due to it now including a green box at the bottom half of the screen which pushes the pdf up to the top and hides the top half of the page. I have to pinch the pdf down to a smaller size to try to read what’s on the top half of the page. Please fix this!!! I might have to switch away.
APP HAS BEEN ABANDONED :-(

At one time this was a great app, it was really one of the first well-constructed designs for .cbr type files, meaning it was one of the first to make it easier to access and view comics and even some manga. For reasons unknown to me it’s apparently just been left to die, which is a shame because the new larger screen iPhones and other nifty features in the hardware and iOS 12 open up a ton of possibilities for apps like these. I suppose I’ll keep my fingers crossed. If the creativity that originally built this app got focused on the newest phones and features, this could be reworked into one heck of a tool. Cheers!

Still getting a black bar using it with a iPad Pro. Best ePub reader on the market though.
Badly in need for an update

This app used to be fantastic. It was my go to reader for a long time. It’s been a while since I’ve used it, but I recently downloaded it again. I was disappointed to see that not only is the UI ugly because it hasn’t been updated for the newer display sizes, but on my iPhone XS Max, when I go landscape, it flips upside down and crops half of the app so there’s a small square in the incorrect orientation. I’m currently looking for something to replace this app. I’d have given 0-1 star if i didn’t know it’s true potential of being a fantastic app again.
Needs an update!

Really wish I could use this for PDFs of manga I’ve bought. I love that you can switch the page order to right-to-left. But landscape view does not work at all, and the interface badly needs an update for high-res iPad screens.
