That's an unbeatable combination for reading in bed.
I find the Kobo Libra 2 with it's 7" screen very easy to hold in bed with one hand.

It's not just the size of the screen, but also the weight of the Reader. I know there have been some 6" Readers that were rather heavy in comparison to the Libra 2,
