BookFusion supports PDF/EPUBS and several other formats. You can then create a manual list of custom organized books by doing one of the following:
1. Creating a Custom Series and then adding each book. Example Scotts List
2. Create a virtual shelf and then add the books there - https://bookfusion.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/36003058387...

Thanks for sharing. As you mentioned it works well for Google based books but you cant download the books your upload.
Would be interesting to hear your feedback if you decide to try BookFusion

Thank you for giving it a try. The color for the fonts are set based on what is present in the EPUB or document. We currently allow you to change the font type, background and other options but not the color of the font currently.
I have added this to the development roadmap and you will see it deployed by Q2 this year
