New Onyx Boox (Air or Note 3) would be my choice since its native pdf reader is good enough (no need for installation of KOReader app), it has got a good pen and frontlight, OTG support for an external storage etc.
Agree 100%. You could also consider using an older model secondhand (Note2 is still on offer via Ebay from Onyx, I just bought one). Check out this video if you want to be persuaded that 10inches is the optimum size for an eReader...
