First of all, click on the Book Store button, at the top
above the main pane. You have four viewing options to
choose from. The standard landing page is the Featured option,
which shows the latest releases by genre.

The Top Charts link offers the current best-selling paid
and free eBooks. Or enter a title or author into the
search bar on the top right. Lastly, you can view all current
titles from the complete A-Z listings of authors on the left.3
When you’ve made your selection, click on the cover to be
taken to the publication’s home page. Here you can
download the full title or a short free sample. If you opt for the
free sample it automatically downloads, but the full purchase
requires you to log in with your Apple ID.

options are replaced with a Read button. Click this to
begin reading your eBook. To make another purchase or browse
the Apple Books Store, click the left-pointing arrow in the top left

Adding PDFs to Books.
You can copy PDF documents onto your Mac and into the Books app, and sync them using your iCloud account.
Open up Books on your Mac and select Add to Library from
the File menu. From here, open the folder containing the PDF
files you wish to add to Books.
Select Books from your Books Library and you now see these
PDF files that you just added to your collection, which can be
viewed just as if they were purchased books.
