Physically, e-readers are getting to be fairly indistinguishable. The Kindle Paperwhite, Kobo Glo HD and Nook Glowlight are all similar enough, to me anyway (excusing screen resolution).

My question is what do you think of the different e-reader user interfaces?

I like the Nook software. I think it is very well designed. I like the layout of the home page, the library and settings. Most especially I like the little 'back to book' button in the upper left corner. It is there no matter what screen you are on, so that your book is always only a single touch away.

But then, I'm only familiar with the Nook. What are your opinions of the Kindle or Kobo software?

If you've used more than one, what are the plusses and minuses of each?
