Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: EEPP at 94% against Pooleys eBooks's 8%. EEPP also leads on rating (4.8 vs 1.0) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 4 months). Pooleys eBooks's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
