This is great! Bookmarked.

One complaint I have is the low-res cover images. I'm on a 4K screen and the cover images look really blurry. I can't make out the subtitles of books.

Also, the double-click to close is a unintuitive. I'd much prefer to use the back button

Thanks! Yeah the covers are awful. I didn't want to host so many images so I used the external image urls returned by the Google Books API.

Someone else also commented about using the back button over double clicking. I'll work on that next :)

It's also blurry on a 0.7k screen, for what it's worth.
