Generally, I read different books on different readers. Due to the internal storage limitations on the Aura One (wasn't that long ago that 8GB would have been endless storage) so currently, I have most of my fiction and work epubs on the Aura One. The cookbooks which chew up space worse than manga are on the external uSD card in an H2O with a backup on an Aura HD and it's external uSD card. Probably just as well to keep the KA1 out of the kitchen.

Since I read mostly epubs when I've been swapping between ereaders doing some testing, all I do is to remember the Adobe page number and go to that page number on the next ereader to keep my reading in sync. One of few advantages of synthetic page numbers which don't care about the screen, font or anything else's size.

If using kepubs synchronized from Kobo's site, the reading position is automatically synced though there seem to be odd delays and hiccoughs in that process. So read an ebook, stop and sync. Move to next ereader, sync, continue reading from where you left off, stop and sync, repeat cycle.

Personally, I'm not that fond of the way kepubs are presented nor some of the odd glitches in the way styles are applied -- not that epubs are much better but at least I know most of the glitches and workarounds.
