Do you have an E-reader? What kind is it?

I picked myself up an E-reader awhile ago and it got me thinking about all the various types there are out there. I ended up going with a Kobo Clara Colour. It offers way more freedom than any Kindle device and it was a cheaper option than some of the other color E-reader offerings out there. I like it because it lets me put any epub, pdf, or certain other file types I want onto it directly from my computer. I can even share the files to it over Calibre with a local server.

Anyway, I want to know if anyone else here has an E-reader or even multiple and which models they chose and why.

When I first got into anime and manga near the end of 2021, I wanted a reader that I could use exclusively for manga and light novels so for Black Friday I paid around $50 for a Fire HD 8 and a case. Since it's a kindle, it came with easy access to all the books I already had from Amazon but I was also able to add whatever else I had easily I PDF or epub plus I would watch anime on it every now and then.

My dad has been trying to buy me a kindle for like 10 years now lol but I just don't want one. I like books. I like the feeling of holding a book in my hand, I like turning the pages, I like displaying them on book shelves. And I spend enough time staring at screens already. I definitely understand the appeal, and the convenience of having all of your books in one device. But it's not my preference.

Manga and comics are exactly the reason I wanted to get a color device actually. I usually hunt down the color versions of both of those things. The display still works well enough for black and white stuff too so it's nice. I just saw how Amazon has been removing books from people's libraries lately and removing features like being able to locally download your books and all that so I just avoided Kindles like the plague.







tgags123 :

Yeah I get that, I wish I had more space for physical books in my house lol. I went with an E-reader because I wanted to encourage myself to read more and I always got eye strain if I tried to read on my computer. The E-ink is a lot easier on the eyes so it helps me quite a bit. I ended up reading Coraline on the thing the day I got it, just read the entire book in one sitting. First book I read in probably a decade lol.

I bought a Kindle Paperwhite on sale during Black Friday 2023 (I think). I've used it a fair bit, but not recently. Like tgags, I prefer reading physical books when I can. Recently, I've been listening to my backlog of audiobooks through Audible, so I haven't used my Kindle in a few months. With Prime Day coming up soon, I'm sure some titles I want will be on sale, so I might consider getting them on my Kindle. That'll definitely give me a reason to pick it back up again.

I used to have one back in 2022, it was a website that you can read books, and listen, but I kinda forgot the name for it, and the only reason I used it was because of School.
