Just to add my own experience in the Mars. For the last few months, I've hardly been using it (acute lack of time for leisure time reading, unfortunately), but I share the impression in the linked post above that battery life on the updated Android 8 is pretty good, particularly also in standby. (I don't recall many details from before the upgrade, but for my purposes it was also fine).
As mentioned, it's probably worse than a Kindle or Kobo. Over the last 8 days or so it lost 21% battery. Wi-fi switches off automatically, but it may be possible that you can make it more effective by switching off Google services. For my purposes, however, this is perfectly fine, since generally when I pick up the device there's always still enough energy for whatever I want to do.
