Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mangora at none against My Books's 1. Mangora also leads on ads (none vs shown). My Books's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 days) and iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
