I don't know about Barnes and Noble but both Kindle and Kobo have reading apps for Android and there are a plethora of dedicated reading apps (Moon+ Reader, Aldiko, Mantano) that you can use to sideload books. If you want a pure reading experience then I would recommend getting anI eInk reader. But if you're getting a tablet then I think you would really be limiting yourself. For example, the Amazon app store is much more limited than the Google Play store which isn't available on the Kindle Fire (unless you're into hacking your device.) The Kobo hardware is not nearly as good as the Nexus. Now if the Nexus were priced like an Apple product I could see why you would be willing to accept something less but the Nexus pricing is very comparable to the other tablets you're looking at.
