I find I really like my Android with both Moon Reader Pro and a couple of other ereader apps.
To avoid the "too many bleedin icons and too much scrolling to read problem" I find that looking for books by going to the directory listing (usually the mnt/extsdcard).
I save the library of ebooks I have ready to read by author using a name based on series, series number, title, authors.
I save anthologies in separate directories and tend to break out those stories that belong to an existing series.
The reason I find this easiest for me and to explain to others is because there is no scrolling through multiple books and authors to find the next book in a series.
Using a stylus it is easier to open a book from a directory listing. My reason for two or three ebook readers on a system is because every now and then I want to refer to another book while reading and that allows it. Also, some readers handle pdf better than others and I still have some books that are in that format. It is such a pain to translate them and some things just do not convert well from pdf.
If you get your aunt an android with lots of memory you can store the books on the device BUT it is probably a given that an sd card is one of your best choices.
I find the necessity to navigate directories the lessor of evils than navigating icons.
A question. Is your aunt close enough for you to be able to provide user support "hands on" and if she isn't is there some "tech savvy" person for you to enlist to help her find and open a new book until it becomes easy for her?.
Another question. Does she have a computer she uses.
