Unfortunately Blue Shade is unusable, as it eliminates almost all contrast in its quest to eliminate blueness. By contrast, iOS's Night Shift doesn't completely eliminate blue even at 'maximum' color shift, but it is a very helpful mitigation otherwise.
Night theme alone would handle most of blue elimination for reading if the screens were OLED (you get real black, i.e., no light emission or energy consumption from black pixels). But until now, those haven't seen broad application, I assume because of other trade-offs.

Larger area for me is just less page turning. Just to get thru 1 page on the PW3 is 3 page turns. On the Fire 10 1 page IS 1 page

My reading is in Bed 90% of the time. Book is about 18 -24 inches from my face.
