Play Books
Use the Play Books app to read eBooks from the Internet-
based Google Play™ Books service. Google eBooks is a new
way to discover, buy, and enjoy your favorite books online
and offline.
You can read books online or mark them for availability
offline, so you can read them when you have no Internet
connection (such as on an airplane). You can also use Books
as your starting point for browsing or searching for books on
line.
