Describe the feature/enhancement

Hello. You have created a nice app. Thanks.
I would like to suggest awesome features.

1)It will be cool if you app could combine listening and reading ebooks.(to have pdf, epub readers like in Kavita and CalibreWeb.)
And while you are reading an ebook - the audio player should be on the top.
It is useful for learning languages when you can listening and reading an ebook at the same time, and click pause/play don’t switching contexts

2) the next feature is ability to make annotations in pdf, epub, like highlighting, underscoring etc.
Thanks

Item 1 is possible -- refer to my last picture in #916.
I think Item 2 is duplicated elsewhere but can't find it.
Just noting this appears to be an app request -- refer to https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/ for these.
@advplyr possibly closable, I'm happy to put together a checklist that collects all the e-reader related requests if that would be helpful

Yeah item 1 is already available. Highlighting and annotations in epub is something we can do if we stay with using epubjs.

It would be helpful if we found all the ebook related inquiries and labeled them as ebooks then we can filter for that in the issues page

Just a quick link to #1709 which seems to relate to this issue.

Would also love to see the possibility to highlight text in EPUBs/PDFs.
Would be an easier way to find the place you left reading.
