IBooks on IPad Problem

Question

Hi.....my iBooks application has started having a issue.....when I launch the app, the book case view opens but there is no books in it but then the app closes completely after about 10secs.....there are Books on it...but it seems to struggle populating them...
This only started happening in the last few days and there have been no new books added.
Any guidance would be appreciated

I'd recommend trying some of the things recommended in the Guide besides Resets, by which I'm assuming you mean the 'hard' or system reset. Boilerplate below summarizes the options:
From the Tips & Troubleshooting section of the User Guide:
*Restarting and Resetting iPad*
If something isn’t working right, try restarting iPad, force quitting an app, or resetting iPad.
*Restart iPad*    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
*Force quit an app*  Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then press and hold the Home button until the app quits.
+If you can’t turn off iPad or if the problem continues, you may need to reset iPad. This should be done only if turning iPad off and on doesn’t resolve the problem.+
*Reset iPad* Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
*iPad Still Doesn’t Respond After Reset*
+Reset iPad settings.+ From the Home screen choose Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. All your settings are reset, but your data and media aren’t deleted.
If that doesn’t work, +erase all content on iPad+. See Resetting iPad.
If that doesn’t work, +restore the iPad software.+ See Removing a Backup.
