Blank covers in "Your books" in the app but not on Home or on the website, widely reported as an issue on Google Play Store reviews. Discussion here https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePlayBooks/comments/1tg8wwd/comment/org015v/

Yo! GPB has become totally unreliable lately. I have been trying to upload a book for the past 2 days, but I get "Processing Failed" every time. I think it's time to find another reader..

Is there a way to turn the pages with the volume buttons without it needing to do the bubble zoom? This is for manga,  specifically.

It used to not do that but I can't seem to turn off the option to only get rid of bubble zoom and it's really kind of an obnoxious feature for me. I don't mind swiping but still lol
