Epub reader for Mac

Hi, can anyone recommend a epub reader for Mac that allows a person to read a whole book with no need to select the next chapter each time? Bought speech Central which seems to work but I can't get it to read with the VoiceOver voice that I prefer. Has some weird AI voice or something and allows me to use Alex which I prefer not to read with.

Voicedream is unaffordable and can't get the books app or Thorium reader to display entire books. Maybe I am missing a setting or something due to being very new to Mac. Please any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I export the book from Speech Central with DOC format and read it with TextEdit with ‘Read All’ command o Voiceover. There is no one book reading solution on the Mac that’s not problematic from accessibility point of view.

Thank you, I was really hoping that converting books to another format wouldn't be my only option. At least if I can export from Speech Central then I don't still need to figure out where to get a converter. Appreciate the help.

I use speech central and it works fine... What problems are you having for changing the voice? You should be able to select from all available mac os voices in settings. You might have to dowload the voice, however. I think it only shows the ones you have downloaded.
