Cozying up to read a good book has long been a favorite pastime of millions but while many still like the look and feel of a real book there is no doubt that mobile devices and ereaders make it much more convenient to carry around a large collection of ebook, whether you do so for work, study or fun.
If you have an Android tablet or phone here are some ebook readers that will help you make the best of the ebook reading experience, even if that sometimes involves playing video and audio that has been embedded in the PDF or having the app read back to you using text-to-speech technology.
Kindle
Amazon has one of, if not the largest market for electronic books, so it is no wonder that they also have an Android ebook reader.
The Kindle app puts over a million books at your fingertips, including online versions of popular magazines, newspapers and those in the Kindle proprietary file format, and best of all you don’t even need a Kindle to use this app.
The Kindle app gives you access to thousands of free ebooks and the ability to easily shop for new releases and best sellers.
Some of Kindle’s most notable features include:
- A Built-In Dictionary, Google, and Wikipedia – Allows you to instantly look up words while you’re reading

- Customize Your Reading – Choose your preferred font size, screen brightness, background color, and orientation (portrait or landscape) to read your books
- Sample Books Before You Buy – Read the first chapter of a book before you decide to buy

Advance Android eReaders & eBook Annotation Apps
Sometimes you may need to do more than read an ebook, in fact you may want to view, make annotations to and fill out forms within ebooks – ezPDF and RepliGo Reader allow you to do just that.
ezPDF Reader – The PDF form filler in this Android PDF app is great for completing application forms, school tests, and contracts. Imagine being able to read a document, signing it and sending off to a client by email, all from your Android tablet or phone.
The multimedia viewer can also be used to play audio and video that is embedded in PDFs. If you are not in the mood to read you can use the TTS (text-to-speech) feature to have audio read back to you.
RepliGo Reader $4.99 – This eReader integrates seamlessly with Gmail, Dropbox, Evernote and numerous other applications so you can store and access your documents on the Internet.
What makes RepliGo Reader special is the fact that it is not just a PDF reader, but enables PDF annotating and form filling so you can review documents on the go by adding highlights, cross outs, underlines, sticky notes, arrows, lines, ovals, rectangles, freehand drawings and text boxes. Comments are stored as standard annotations in the original PDF file, just like Adobe® Acrobat®.
Conclusion
This roundup of Android ebook readers was not meant to be comprehensive. What we tried to do is find Android ereaders with the highest user ratings and the most interesting and useful features that we believe readers would most appreciate.
Nevertheless we thought two other ebook reader apps were worth mentioning, namely 
Kobo eBooks and 
Nook for Android. These apps were developed by Kobo and Barnes & Noble respectively, and are worth considering if you already use their services.
