THIS LIST HAS BEEN DELETED DUE TO A BUG, SO IT MISSES SOME HONORABLE MENTIONS !
I've been using Linux for a year now. I do use CLI tool and the terminal but I'm super used to GUI and I do understand why you might don't want to bother with Terminal and stuff ! Here is my list of useful tools for beginners on Linux !

Wow, this e-book reader has everything you need:
Lightweight and fast, does what it is supposed to
Excellent way to read ebooks on desktop. Love the 2-page layout.
Read the news about brand new magnificent v.3 just gettings out. Installed it. Discovered it does not support PDFs (contrarily to all competitors)... Most of my ebooks are in PDF format. Was unable to open the first EPUB I gave it... = apt purged ;)
Feels very similar to MacOS "Books."
In my opinion the best desktop epub reader. I wish they also had a windows version. The interface is clean, you find all the features you expect, such as dictionary, translator, themes, export notes and so on. Amazing app.
