Android Question

I want to move one of my books out of the little blue book and put it on the screen where my apps are. Can that be done?

After 15+ years, we've made a big change: Android Forums is now Early Bird Club. Learn more here.
If you're running 4.1 or higher, you can add the Google Play Books widget to your home screen by going into your app drawer, then selecting widgets from the top (or possibly scrolling far enough to one side), and drag it to your home screen by long pressing on it. This widget is an excellent way to get quick access to any of your books as you can scroll through them on the home screen and select to open the book right from there.
