"I think if you love reading, you will read regardless of whether it is ebook or print." This!
I first bought an ereader (Aluratek Libre Pro) in 2010 - it's a basic model - no wifi & no light. It's still going strong today & still has excellent battery life. I've added (ahem) a 'few' more to that one, but it's my rough-&-tumble choice for camping, hiking, etc.. My little paperwhite Kindle lives in my purse and definitely gets the most use these days - easy to hold, easy to read, blah, blah. I had something over 3000 DT books before 2010, and still have somewhere between 400-600. Slowly weeding out as I replace them with ebooks and continue to downsize. I still probably re-read more than I read 1st time.. The other wonderful thing about eReaders? Audiobooks!! Now that there is only me, I love, love, having an audiobook going when taking long trips. Especially when driving, but a 4+ hr flight is greatly enhanced with a set of headphones and a Really Good Book. I'd suggest going somewhere (like Best Buy?) which has lots of models you can hold; see what's comfortable. I've learned that I like to have a light(Nook Glow, Kindle Paperwhite, etc) and audio, small enough to hold easily, big enough to read easily..
Whatever you decide, ENJOY!
