Wrote a review on the Chrome store and thought I needed to write a review here too. This is a great immersive reader extension, and the support is great!

Works as expected - colour overlay and line ruler are definitely accessible for free which some reviews have been contradicting. Quick and simple to set up and use. Really helpful.
