I’ve been using an e-reader since July of 2020, and I gotta say, I’m completely hooked. A blog post about my switch from paper books to e-books will follow, but for now I want to tell you about the differences between the two major e-readers.

But different people look for different things in their devices, so I thought I’d list some of the reasons you could go for either one.
