This paper presents an analysis of current trends in the development of mobile applications for e-book reading, including their global distribution. It offers a classification of the main types of such applications and provides an overview of modern architectural principles used in their design. Particular attention is given to architectural approaches that support personalization, scalability, offline access, modularity, user behavior analytics, interface adaptability, and integration with cloud and social services. An enhanced MVVM-based architecture is proposed, incorporating elements of Clean Architecture to separate the UI and business logic through reactive data bindings and ensure the application's independence from specific UI technologies, databases, or external APIs. The findings of this study are valuable for professionals and developers in the fields of digital technology, software engineering, electronic publishing, and education.
