i own both types & probably I am in a minority of 1 when I say I prefer reading on may Fire HD10 tablet , in 2 page landscape with a coloured background, to reading on my eink Kindle Paperwhite.
The 2 page landscape mode is more like an actual book - unless you are in the habit of doubling the spines back on paperbacks, and I find it more relaxing to not have a completely white background
Also the tablet lets me read both amazon books in kindle reader and epub with moon reader, and use calibre companion for simple wireless book loading of both formats.
I also have a previous generation samsung tab 10.5 inch android tablet - which again is a very relaxing hi-def read. that tablet has a reading mode option which reduces screen refresh time and mutes colours, and also a blue light filter app ( from Google play store ). Samsung no longer make the 16x10 shape HD tablets, otherwise I'd recommend that. I have not tried reading on the squarer ipad & clones tablets
The cheaper fire HD is arguably better for watching movies etc as it supports AC3 - dolby audio, so plex runs without any need to transpose those, plus you get full HD amazon video
