Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Read Live at 5.0 against GoWorksheet's 4.2. Read Live also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10). GoWorksheet's advantage is ratings volume (70 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
