Is the process easy? I know what are the gains of root for android phones but which are the gains for an ereader other than using fullscreen? I also have google play store installed

It wasn't hard or dangerous on my T61.
I did
3- How to Install the Device & Adb Driver (Win 7 & Win 8)
then
1- How to root your device & Install Google Play Store (I skipped installing Google Play Store)
The hardest part was getting adb to see the Boyue. I had to enable USB debugging then adb saw it.
It was no big deal. I took my time. I cannot guarantee it will work on your device. So I understand your fears. Perhaps ask on that thread. But I don't think even a failed root would brick a device. What version of android do you have? If it's 4.4 the above method won't work.
I understand your doubts. I went for it because I want total control of my device. In fact I did it to get fullscreen.
