My new e-reader

When my Kobo Libra 2 started to show signs of failing, I looked at getting a replacement. I initially thought I would go for a Kobo colour but then I changed my mind.

I wanted to go for something different, smaller, easier to load any book on and eventually went with the Pocketbook Verse Pro.

I found a really good deal for it with an open box sale. I was so lucky because it looked untouched other than the broken seal.

In short: I love it! The battery life is insane, it has the buttons I loved in my Kobo. It was so easy and intuitive to set up.

I no longer have Kobo Plus but I don’t really miss it. I just buy the books I want to own, shopping on websites to find the cheapest ebooks and then mail them to my reader.

I also still have a couple owned books I haven’t read yet, so there’s no worry about getting bored. Not to mention the stacks of unread physical books 🤣

As an aside: I’m tackling my TBR with both digital and physical books by keeping the e-reader for evening reads only and for playing audiobooks.

All in all I’m pretty happy with my choice. And if you have tips for great ebook stores, I’m game!
