I has come to my attention that some users have never heard of F-droid. F-droid is a free software app store for android (f-droid.org)

I use Librera every day: the user interface looks a bit outdated but has support for any format known to man and a ton of features (and I mean A TON)

KOreader. But it's more aimed at ereaders.

if you're looking for a legit READING app, KOReader is the only way to go. especially if you have an ereader tablet too that uses KOReader too and/or use Calibre. I moved to it from Kindle + Kindle app on Android and I just have no idea what the purpose of Kindle is anymore unless you buy ebooks directly from Amazon. in which case you should... well.... stop.

Yeah, it's pretty good. But at first it's difficult to get the hang of it

I second MuPDF viewer for quickly viewing PDFs, it acts exactly as I expect it to and feels very slim.

But I am not sure if it is a good ebook reader. I use KOReader in connection with Calibre on my Laptop.

Librera reader is pretty good
