    Free and open source. Plus it is faster and easier to navigate than Kindle.

    It's more lightweight and customizable than Kindle's reader and its built-in file management is good too.

    It's a good alternative because, unlike Amazon's proprietary services, it uses Anna's Archive's open library.
