It's a very good device. As an Android device, it will support multiple ereading apps, and it will let you do more than just read books. This gives you more freedom than you would get with a dedicated device.
If you don't mind being tied to a particular book store, the new Kobo Forma could be a good one to get. It will be better for reading than the Kobo app, and it is slightly bigger than the Likebook Mars.
If you're more interested in Android, you might still wait for the Oynx Boox Nova. The Likebook Mars is superior in some specs, but its software is not the best. Its built-in ereader isn't very useful unless you can read Chinese, and the Nook app doesn't work on it. But I don't think a release date is available for the Nova yet, and if you need something sooner, the Likebook Mars is not so bad. There are lots of Android ereader apps you can use in place of its default ereading app, and even if you can't use the Nook app, you'll still be able to use the Kindle app, the Kobo app, and the Google Books app for buying new books. You'll also be able to use Overdrive or Libby to check out library books.
