I like reading on e-ink, my kindle just keeled over but want to get out from under the Amazon bs. Anything that won’t have me fucking with a laptop is a bonus.

Only advice I'd give is look into large-format e-readers, so e-ink tablets basically. Much better having more text on the screen. There are a lot of fly-by-night Chinese brands making 10.3" 227 dpi android-based e-ink tablets these days. Boox is fairly reputable. There's also the remarkable tablet if you want pen input.

This but adding don't buy a super large one (like 13in) as no accessories are made for that size
