I have both. I read with both. I alternate them. My first comment is your Nan will be delighted to know the light isn't just for night reading. It's useful during the day, too.
The Voyage screen is a bit brighter but for my the Paperwhite is bright enough. I don't like the haptic buttons on the Voyage so I have them turned off. I do like the surface of the Voyage being glass all the way across.
I prefer reading the Paperwhite in bed. It's a bit larger and easier for me to hold onto and I live in Mexico and haven't been able to get a case I like. I do not like the Origami flip over the top and stand up if you read at a table case.
I don't know where you are but if you have the thirty-day return policy get both and see which Nan likes.
If I could only have one Kindle it would be the Paperwhite. But, HarryT who knows a lot about Kindles and is a smart guy prefers the Voyage. It really does come down to personal preference.
