Whenever I tried converting books in to epub to read on iBooks, I found more 
pages in the book than there are paragraphs in it. I found it really a 
worthless exercise to convert to epub. May be some books convert better than 
others?

  Not that I'm aware of.  the only real alternative is the same price and not 
as easy to use.
  If you want to jump through a bunch of hoops to say the $19.99 you could use 
the XML file from the zip file and then use Stanza to create an ePub version 
and read it in iBooks, or something else.  You could even  convert it to simple 
.txt and read it in a number of apps.

  If you are not familiar with Stanza, I'd search the archives of this group.  
There are detailed instructions how to convert Bookshare books using Stanza.

  HTH,

  Hello folks,

   

  I'm just wondering if there are any alternatives to the Read2Go iOS app for 
reading Bookshare content on my iPhone.  $19.99 is a bit steep for an applaud 
if there are any free or low-cost alternatives I can use, I would be grateful 
for any suggestions.  

  Thanks,

  Kevin
