There have been major changes in the Bluefire Reader world. An article dated 29 August 2019 in "The Digital Reader" at https://the-digital-reader.com/2019/08/29/bluefire-reader-has-been-retired/ had warned of such changes.

While the Bluefire Reader is still available via Google Play, it is no longer free, and now costs US$2.99. But my old free version continues to operate just fine, as does integrated access to an associated library of e-books, including many free ones in the public domain. (These come from http://www.feedbooks.com - which anyone, Bluefire Reader user or not, can access manually.)

Because of the changes, I am not surprised that when I try to use http://apkleecher.com to extract the .apk for the Bluefire Reader at Google Play, it is no longer possible.

The Bluefire people make available on Google Play an alternative e-book reader to their non-free Bluefire Reader app, a free app called Cloudshelf Reader.

Unfortunately, when I try to use http://apkleecher.com to extract its .apk (for sideloading on the Amazon Kindle) it proves impossible.
