How it happened is beyond me as it hasn't been dropped or taken any physical blows. I also keep it in my Nook HD+ rigid cover case so this really is a mystery.
I would guess that the most common way to break the substrate is by twisting the device rather than hitting it. It's difficult to make something of the shape of a reader rigid enough to be "twist-proof" without making it even thicker and heavier. Anyway, you have my sympathies. I hope you find a way to get it repaired.
