I am in need of reader applications that are specifically optimized for textbooks. I would really appreciate if the application allows to search for and download textbooks directly without being restricted to content within a specific region/country, bookmark pages and have a simple and clean UI, apart from which I do not have any special requirements. I would ideally be looking for an application that can be installed both in my PC and mobile and allow syncing, however it is optional.

There is Myne but it doesn't have the sync capability.

Then koreader but cannot download books but has sync.

Both are for Android.
