I wouldn't get one of these. The Nexus 7-2 is pretty good, but it doesn't come close to the iPad Mini in the quality of its apps, use of a stylus (Adonit), and lots of other things. If the Mini comes out with a retina screen (the present one is terrible), I'll get one the moment it appears. Why get a dumbed-down tablet like the Fire whose main purpose is to enable Amazon to sell you things? You're missing 90% of what a tablet should do. For reading on a backlit screen, the Nexus is the best deal at present, as far as I can see. If Apple can get its act together, the retina iPad Mini will be even better (using Marvin, which is superior to any of the Android readers, imo).
