I got a Kobo Libra H2O to try. I like it enough, but I'd love a metal body. I'd really like a flush screen. Auto brightness would be nice, but isn't a big a deal as I originally thought.

I side load everything, and use a Mac. Currently doing a lot with Calibre. From what I can tell, my options are limited to Amazon, Nook, Onyx, and Kobo. I'd love to hear of some other e-ink option that I'm unaware of.

The Kobo Forma seems nice, but I worry about it being too large, and therefore awkward in the hand.

I'm not price sensitive. Any thought or suggestions?

Thanks for all your help on here!
The Forma is not awkward to hold at all. On the contrary! If you like the buttons (I don't) it is perfect! It is extremely well balanced, easy to hold one handed and the screen real estate is awesome!
