Readkave – EPUB & Ebook Reader

EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, FB2 & CBZ reader for Chrome. Read offline with dark mode, read aloud, highlights, notes and full-text search.

Readkave turns Chrome into a proper ebook reader. Open an EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, FB2 or CBZ file and read it like a book: real pages, a table of contents, full-text search, bookmarks and highlights — all stored in your browser, nothing uploaded. WHAT YOU GET • Pages that turn one at a time (no skipped chapters, no flicker) — or scroll mode if you prefer • Search inside the whole book in seconds • Bookmarks, highlights in four colours and notes, exported as a text file • Light, sepia and dark themes that also work on books with their own styling • Font, text size, line spacing, margins, one or two columns, fullscreen • Read aloud with your browser's voices — start from any sentence, the text is highlighted as it reads, and "Back to reading" brings you back if you browse elsewhere • Definitions (Wiktionary) and translation (Chrome's built-in translator, into the language you choose) for any text you select • Right-to-left and vertical text: Arabic, Hebrew, Japanese • Remembers where you stopped in every book, even after a restart • Keyboard shortcuts for everything (press ? in the reader) OPEN BOOKS YOUR WAY • Drop files into the library or use "Add books" • Turn on "Open ebook files in Readkave" and double-clicked or downloaded books open here instead of piling up in Downloads • Right-click any ebook link on the web → "Open in Readkave" PRIVACY Readkave has no account, no ads and no tracking. Books, highlights and reading positions stay in your browser. The internet is used only when you ask for something that needs it: opening a link, looking up a word, translating. DRM-protected books (Adobe DRM, Readium LCP) cannot be opened — Readkave tells you clearly instead of showing a blank page. Readkave is built on foliate-js (MIT). It is free, and reads the same public-domain classics you can download from Project Gutenberg.
