I recommend the Kindle Paperwhite 5. Pretty sure all the in-store models are still on old firmware so you can get one now at Target or Best Buy and jailbreak it and put KOReader on it. The battery life I’m getting out of KOReader on the PW5 is nothing short of phenomenal. 1% drain per hour of actual reading (maybe like 1.1% max), so by Amazon’s phrasing, it’s more like 6 months of battery with 30mins of reading a day instead of the 2.5 months they’re advertising. (Obviously, the overhead of waking/sleeping won’t let you get all the way to 6 months, but still.)

I had the Libra 2 before but returned it because the PW battery knocked my socks off. And like @muggleMode says, the page turn animations eliminate almost all screen flashes and look great in KOReader too.
