This is a nice app... for Windows Surface.. because Surface won't allow Google Book, has notes & dictionary.
This app is equivalent to JW Library.(minus the note taking) JW Library does exact same WITH pictures.
IF THIS APP ADDED... a Dictionary and possibly ability to WRITE notes with a stylus it would be PERFECT!!!
BUT still is a GREAT APP.

I have Windows 8 64-bit on a desktop PC. I wanted to install Book Bazaar Reader. So I went to Windows store. Clicked on the "Get the App" button. A separate window opened for a few seconds and closed. No message as to whether the installation was successful or not OR whether it started at all OR whether the software downloaded or not. Nothing. Tried it again a few times with no success. So what's wrong? And how do I install it? (No virus on my system. Checked that.)

A handy alternative when needed.

Great app

Takes FOREVER To install, not user friendly to import books from other websites. Can't even get the stupid thing to uninstall.

Whether epub or PDF files I simply like having all my books in one place. The app also allows you to create categories to group books according to content. The reading experience is also great with many options to edit how the text pdisplays (this doesn't go for PDF of course) . There is also a progress bar below to indicate how far you've read in the book. All in all , this is a great app. I am very happy to have it.

I have tried a dozen e-reader apps on Windows touch enabled devices. In my opinion, this beats them all, hands down. I only wish it didn't have to make a duplicate copy of the book to import it into the library. It would be superb if it could read it in place off the SD card I have installed. Mantano (my reader of choice on Android) does exactly that. I haven't found a reader on Windows that can do that -- yet. Add that as an option and I will immediately give 5 stars.

This is a fantastic Reader. It is fast loading books and changing pages. The only reason I do nit five it 5 stars is library interface is confusing.

Smooth user friendly interface ,many useful features. Easy to use.

Have tried several epub readers and this one is the best for use on my windows 8.1 tablet. Get better results from computer files in MOBI format vs EPUB format. Would love to see a dictionary look up feature.

Great Epub Reader...

It will be perfect if allow me to change the book cover

This app is excellent. It works really well on my Surface 2. It has a feel like you are reading a tactile book. Pages are animated to look like you are actually turning them. I prefer this reader to kindle.

Mobi crashed this crap.

This is everything you could want! I Love this app.

I've tried them all, and this has the best combination of control over the display, organization, loading local files, and ease of use. Aldiko for Win would be fantastic, but until that happens, Book Bazaar is the one.

I've tried several different e-book reading programs for my Surface RT tablet but none of them came as close to satisfying my needs as a reader as BBR. The only complaint I have is that there's no way to change/add a cover to a book which would come in handy. Other than that it's a great little program.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could color the book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
14 October 2015
I download this app to have it read PDFs. But unless there is something I'm missing it does not read PDF files.

Overall, I believe that this is a very good book reader. I love that I can highlight important passages in a variety of colors. It even has a "speak" mode so that I can hear certain words pronounced. The only issue I have, and it is a small issue, is that sometimes the marker for making notes does not mark on the desired paragraph. Otherwise it is an excellent tool and worth more than the price.

And it copy every opened book into its own folder instead of reading from the original copy.

Looks very good, reads all needed formats and has all needed options for reading.
