Verdict
The clearest difference is price: ReadingTreee at Free against BookTree's $4.99. ReadingTreee also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.1). BookTree's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On ratings volume, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
