I really like Kobo's software with all the different options for fonts, but i read that it breaks easily to a lot of people. I also saw that the nook's lightning is a bit more blueish in tone-which i didn't like.

*sorry for bad English*

Which one is better and why? Do you recommened a different one?
Thanks in advance!
I don't know that any e-reader is tougher than any other (except for waterproofing. The current Nook Glowlight Plus, the Aura H20 and the Aura One offer that). Sounds more like you should get a good case for whatever reader you buy.

The best I can say beyond that is take reasonable care of the thing. My Aura goes into a satchel along with my phone, tablet, wallet, keys, etc and it is fine.

You didn't mention your location, but since you are looking at the Nook, I'm guessing you are in the US. You might want to check out the seller Spinningnoon on eBay. You could get a Kobo Aura and the official case for about $65. At least if you break it in your travels, you didn't spend a ton.

Good luck!
