I'm reading mostly on my iPad. I find it easy to look at and love not needing to find a proper light source. But I don't want to always carry it with me. It gets heavy in my purse and I always stress about it being stolen if I leave it in the car.

Plus I like to sit outside and the glare is a pain.

So I want a back up reader. I do have an android smartphone but I don't want to use it significantly.

Lastly, I like the touch screen because I like to swipe to turn pages.

Oh, and I do lots of library books.

So, I think I am looking at - what? nook touch, sony, kobo touch
Any others? As just a back up reader should I maybe just go for price?
