hi everyone,

i'm finally looking into getting an e-reader instead of lugging around library books in my bag. i’m looking to buy one and done, a device that is worth the money and will last until it literally dies.

i'd love some feedback on these specific points:

• longevity & battery life
• interface speeds to avoid a laggy experience
• libby access + ability to import epubs/pdfs
• portability! (small enough to bring in a standard purse but bigger than a phone screen)
• warm light settings to reduce eye strain
• idk about color vs. b&w 🤔 i don't necessarily need color ink, but i'm open to it if it doesn't hurt the battery life or eye comfort (might get into webtoons or manga again)
• idk if i should look into one with page turning buttons or just buy a bluetooth rig to connect

would love to hear what you guys use and if you have any "regret" buys i should avoid. please lmk! thanks! 😊

update: i got a kobo clara bw and i love it!
