If you use a kobo you have to give koreader a whirl! The only thing missing for me is the unified view of the library: koreader requires you to navigate to the subdirectory to open your ebook whereas nickel (kobo’s UI) will list them all in one library regardless of how deeply nested they are.
Everything else is better with koreader and it’s super easy to install alongside nickel. And it works very well with calibre + the kobo plugin.
You can also play with Calibre's default transfer template so all book files go into a single folder of your choice on the device. Then you can set your KOReader home or favorites folder and see everything in one place.
There are several plugins that give you a library view based on metadata instead of folders and filenames. Two examples that are both great:

Thanks, I had no idea, these look great!
