Bought a book on ibooks, it says its downloaded but I can't open it, and the book icon doesn't look like its downloaded. Any ideas?

Don't know whether this is related to your book problem:
I've noticed that iBooks won't download over 3G if they pass a certain size. (I don't know what the tipping point is.) The book cover will appear on your bookshelf, but the book won't be downloaded till you have a wi-fi connection. I'm guessing the problem is with books with a significant number of images. I had it happen with a travel book and a history book.
By contrast, I've never had that happen with books from Amazon/Kindle, B&N/Nook, etc., but those books have had relatively few images, and they were all in black and white, as with historic photos.
