We have mobile phones, laptops and even dedicated eBook readers these days; and for each of these, there has been an obvious rise in the number of applications that seem to offer eBook reading capabilities. We explore, in this article, some free eBook readers that are available for the Mac. IBooks iBooks is Apple’s stock eBook reader app, and it is exactly what an eBook reader for a laptop should be.

It has a clean UI, even in windowed mode. However, go into the full-screen view by pressing “ Command + Option + F” and you will see just why this app is one of the most beautiful eBook readers available on the Mac. Your entire screen is dedicated to the eBook you are reading, and nothing comes in the way. It utilities the entire screen of your Mac to the best possible extent. That’s the entire full screen view of iBooks. I haven’t cropped anything out.
It really is that clean. The fonts are nice and large, spacing is done very well, and it has four different themes you can choose from, depending on your mood or the time of the day. It allows text highlighting, underlining, adding notes and even sharing selected text. I dare you to highlight text on your Harry Potter paperback, purists. IBooks comes pre-installed on the Macbooks, so chances are, you already have it and you just use it. Calibre I have read a lot about Calibre, so I decided to give it a try. As much as I love iBooks, I really wish they had implemented an auto-scroll function, and I was wondering if Calibre would offer that feature. The first thing I noticed as I installed – and then launched – Calibre, was the big splash image on my screen that made me feel like I was back to the apps of the 2010 era. But hey, if Calibre offers something great, I’m not one to whine about a splash image that vanishes in a second or two.
I have no idea why Calibre UI has no calibre (pun intended) at all. I would still have agreed to use it as my go-to eBook reader on the Mac, but it offers nothing useful to me. Sure, I can edit metadata for the eBooks I import into the app, but what use is that to me? I don’t need to change the cover for Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban, nor do I want to change the author’s name. The thing that bugs me even more, if possible (and I didn’t think anything could) was the way Calibre opens eBooks.
In a separate window with ugly looking icons on the sidebar. What in the world are those? Why would I want to use an app that looks straight out of an era I have no interest in returning to?
Not for nothing, though, am I usually lenient with software, especially free ones. I appreciate what the developer wants to achieve here, but it holds no importance for me, and for most people, I imagine. The one good, useful feature that I found in Calibre was the ability to mark reference paragraphs; that should be helpful when making citations from eBooks. Not a feature I have any use for, but it’s a good feature to have in an eBook reader.
If you're just looking for something to expand your port options for connection and charging but don't want to shell out the big bucks, Lenovo's USB-C hub is a low-cost alternative. This is not a Thunderbolt 3 supported hub, but it will connect and work with your 2016 or later MacBook Pro, just in a slightly limited capacity. If you're stuck with a MacBook that only has USB-C ports, you're not stuck using only USB-C accessories.
You also don't have to be stuck with a dongle. A solid, fast-transfer USB-C hub is a worthy investment.
I recommend because it'll solve all your cable needs and is the best option for most people. This post may contain affiliate links.
