I used to do some reading on my Ipad Mini. I got rid of it 2 or 3 years ago so it's been a while and I don't think I knew about Marvin, if it even existed then. I think I read with Bluefire but I'm not sure.
I've had a Kindle for the past 8 years so the Ipad was just used occasionally. I found reading on the Kindle to be far superior. Yes it's black and white but so are most books. I read novels and color simply doesn't matter.
If you get a Paperwhite or a Voyage or an Oasis you get a front light, entirely different than the Ipad's backlight. The screen is opaque and there's a coating above it that directs light down to the screen. No more eyestrain than reading a paper book by lamplight.
My suggestion is get one and try it. That's the only way you'll really know. You have 30 days to return Kindles if you aren't happy.
As for which model, the three I mentioned are the lighted ones and I sure recommend that. In addition to better contrast they also let you read in any situation. They're hugely better. The differences in the three models are small, mostly involving buttons, so which you pick doesn't matter a lot. They all have excellent screens and lights and they have nearly identical interfaces.
