Reading App Recommendation

So in search for reading app for iPad. The problem with Voice Dream Reader and Speech Central is that they either make the whole page in one paragraph or the whole paragraph in one line. So if you need a specific information in one line you have either to read the whole paragraph or page instead of simply reading the line where the piece of information is. Well, EasyReader splits paragraph into lines and they are quite good, still EasyReader always needs internet connection which I do not have all the time particularly when I am traveling abroad. So please recommend me an app that simulate the original document in formatting of lines. This makes reading and going back to the text much easier.
Thanks.

Assign a custom gesture or keyboard shortcut to navigate text. I have keyboard shortcuts and custom gestures to navigate by sentence and paragraph (and a gesture to navigate by word). Works like a drean in my writing app of choice, speech central, safari, and even twitter.

You can sign in with Google (one feature I adore because my google account is so easily in reach), and you can get books then from Bookshare and CELA, which as far as I know come preinstalled and then go to the manage libraries button to get more. You can also, get Periodicals and magazines by going to "My newspapers" and you can get that from bookshare too as well as some other ones. You can't get periodicals though in Bookshare you have to go to My newspapers and select Bookshare from there. You can also add texts from your device's clipboard. There is a side menu that you can pull down and it will be at the top, displaying things like your booklist and the libraries you've signed up for, and some other stuff. You also have your last opened book at the top which is convenient. Most of the time, it will display sentences in one line each, and stop whenever it finds a period or some other things too, but it sounds like I don't have the issues you're describing on EasyReader.
