There are a number of book readers on Android; their makers would
presumably get hit with "cease and desist" lawsuits from a
demonstrably litigious company were their "look and feel" to be
excessively similar to that of said litigious company's application.

Thus, I think that few Android application makers would be so stupid
as to produce something that tries to behave identically to iBooks.

I most frequently find myself using FBReader, which has versions
running on a number of platforms.  http://www.fbreader.org/   I do not
know how similar it is to iBooks; I do find that I like its UI
reasonably well.
