I just got a Likebook Mars and really like it. It does not seem slow to me at all. It receives frequent updates from the manufacturer over wifi - a good sign in my opinion. I was able to get the Android Play Store to work just fine. The screen is very sharp and clear - much better than my Kindle Paperwhite. And I like the larger screen. It plays music and audiobooks just fine through the earphone jack (no built-in speakers). I use the built-in book reader, CoolReader, and Kindle and they all work just fine. I've had it for about 3 weeks and I am still experimenting with it. I would like to find a better PDF reader for example.
I have finished reading 3 books on it so far, which is the main thing. But be cautioned: this is an ebook reader with a few tablet features, not a full-blown tablet. It is great for reading ebooks. That is its thing.
As Flossy Carter would say, on a scale of one to ten, this is a major major go.
I hope that helps a little, and hope you have fun with whatever you get! -Eric
