Have you considered one of the Android eink readers which come with Google Play? Most are based upon the Boyue T64D running Android 4.2.
In Europe (I don't know where you are based), getting a Boyue is not cheap (if one gets landed with import taxes) but the Icarus Illumina E654 and the Energy Sistem Ereader Pro HD are easily available. There is also the InkBook Prime (I don't believe that is a Boyue T64 based reader), but that does not come with Google Play, or Google Services and those apps are difficult/impossible(?) to install on it.
In the USA, I think getting a Boyue is easier.
They all only have a 212 dpi screen.
Onyx Boox have the C67 Carta (the Carta2 has a 300dpi screen) and the expensive Onyx Kepler (again, 300 dpi screen), but I have no experience of Onyx. (Not easy or cheap to obtain in Europe).
On this site you will find pretty detailed postings of user experiences for the Boyue and Onyx readers.
I have a ES Pro HD. I also have Moon+. Moon+ works with Google Drive (though I do not use it) but, on the Pro HD, Moon+ does not work in full screen mode without rooting, so you lose a bit of screen acreage at the bottom. Also, Moon+ does not integrate fully with the running software, so one has to do a manual screen refresh to every now and again to remove ghosting (or, if rooted, one can configure the hardware to page turn and refresh at the same time).
Do not expect Android performance on eink to be as smooth or pleasant as on a phone.
