Thanks for the feedback. One of the features allows users to upload an epub to use in the app. Although I realise that a better method is needed, as it has become harder to find legitimate places to buy epub formatted books.

Do you require the epub to be drm stripped first?

  The app doesn't do anything to remove DRM, so it'll only work with DRM-free files.

I've bought a few epubs (English only) from https://www.humblebundle.com/books https://www.humblebundle.com/books and https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/books https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/books . I'm still skeptical of this proposition though: to learn a language by listening to a TTS? Better to go talk to people. The language starts to solidify after the sounds and non-verbal cues start matching up.

You're welcome for the feedback. I saw the epub import and thought it was novel, but as you said, I don't know of anywhere to buy modern fiction in epub. If you know of legal sellers and linked to them from the site, that would probably be enough for me as a customer. That said, I'd gladly pay you/the site to handle that for me (by paying more than the book's retail price). Hopefully the translation would also be better than anything I imported. (Two sibling replies linked to sites that sell technical non-fiction. That is a very hard way to learn :-) )
