    I'm finding it difficult to get an ereader that works very well for me on my n7.

    I've tried mantano, moon and alkido but find that on some pdfs I have to constantly zoom in every Page.

    Any recommendations?

    Try ezpdf lite , enable reflow and it should do what you need

    Can ezpdf scroll horizontally instead of vertically?

    Alkido doesn't read mobi files??

    I use it to read epub books and its absolutely brilliant imo. But I've a few books in mobi format so looking for a decent app to read them.

    Pity there's nothing that will do a good job on all formats and there we'd be able to have them all in the one place :rolleyes:

    Using Kobo and loving it. Only niggle is the lack of a library search if you have a tonne of books but the home page widget and ease of use makes up for it.

    Will check it out now! thanks

    Edit: Wait, isn't the kobo an actual ereader? I'm looking for an app for my nexus 7!! Not an actual ereader :)

    It's both. Much like Kindle, there's a Kobo app for the Nexus - that's the one I'm using.

    Kobo has some country restrictions so it might not show up on your Play app or even install.

    Why don't you use use the Kindle app ?
    You can email the books to your kindle email address, and then whispersync will work on all your devices to keep you on the right page.
