Hey everyone!
Since open-sourcing BookLore a few weeks ago, development has been moving fast, and I’m excited to share some great new features, especially for comic book fans!

Comic Book Reader
🆕 What’s New:
📚 Comic Book Support (CBZ, CBR, CB7): You can now upload and read comic book formats directly in BookLore with the new CBX reader! Smooth navigation, two-page spread, and series support included.
📁 Much Smarter File Monitoring: File watching is now more robust and responsive. BookLore automatically picks up added/removed books with minimal delay, especially useful for shared folders or automated sync setups.
🔠 New Sorting: Title + Series + Book Number: You can now sort books by title, and for those in a series, BookLore smartly groups and orders them by series name and position. Perfect for keeping your trilogies and long-running series neatly arranged.
📦 OPF & ASIN Metadata Support: BookLore now parses additional metadata formats, including OPF files and Amazon’s ASIN identifiers, helping populate richer, more accurate book data automatically.
