If you don't mind touch screens, this is perfect.
I hate, hate, hate touch screens. I want to go 'home', I wind up skipping pages, backing up, anything but getting to the home page. It is extremely annoying. Other than that, I absolutely love this more than all the Kindles I've ever had. Five. altogether. No, six. I hated the PaperWhite so much, I gave it away. This has an easily adjusted light so it does not hurt your eyes or light up the room. The text is small, but not TOO small, and that means less touching. God, I miss side clickers. The touch thing may seem like a deal-killer, but no. I love this little Kobo, and I love that I can use Overdrive to get books from my library so easily. You can put Pocket on it, too. I read an article about this and decided to give it a try, and yep. It's a good thing. Sometimes you spend your money on something that's just right, and this is one of those things.
