I like the landscape rotation of the Kobo. I will buy a Kobo Libra or Forma.

The Forma screen is about the same size as the iPad Mini. If you need to have larger text, I would recommend the Forma. One other thing about the Forma that's not been mentioned. The Forma uses a plastic backed screen so it is more durable against bump, drops, pressure, etc.
Another thing not mentioned is weight. The Libra weight 192 grams and the Forma weights 197 grams. The reason being is the plastic backed screen is lighter. So you get a bigger screen for no noticeable extra weight.
