Freda is a free program for reading electronic books (ebooks) on Windows Phone. It reads EPUB (DRM-free), FB2, HTML and TXT format books. The program offers customisable controls, fonts and colours, plus annotations and bookmarks, and the ability to look up dictionary definitions and translations.  Freda understands EPUB formatting information (bold/italic text, margins and alignment) and can display images and diagrams in books.
Freda can get books from on-line catalogs like Feedbooks, Smashwords and the Gutenberg Project. Or if you have an existing book collection, you can use SkyDrive, DropBox or Calibre to share it with your phone. Freda can also download books from any website, using an in-application web-browser.
You can download books and keep them on your phone, so you can carry on reading when you don't have network connectivity, and you can pin your favourite books to the Start page.
The manual is at http://www.turnipsoft.co.uk/freda .
New in v2.6:
	- Improved Metro-Style appearance
	- Now reads FB2 books
	- Backup and Restore the bookshelf setup using SkyDrive
	- Password Lock
	- Numerous stability and performance fixes

    Love how it will let me download from any website. Or, I can use my computer to put eBooks on SkyDrive and then load them from there!

    I would like to be able to use this app but for the permissions it requires (full access to my contacts? Why?)

    Good app, solid interface, light to load and has never crashed on me yet. If you like to read ebooks, this is the way to do it.

    If you don't like the ads then pay 99 cents to support, otherwise 5 seconds then you can go to your book small price to pay. Also if you pin the book to your start screen it opens the book immediately with no ads

    Freezes when loading books. Dumps me back at the book selection screen seemingly at random.
