| Bottom line | The Kobo Glo is an excellent
Kindle alternative, especially for readers seeking EPUB compatibility and international options. | With an excellent built-in light and Amazon's best-in-class e-book selection, the
Kindle Paperwhite rises to the top of the e-reader pack. | The Nook Simple Touch with GlowLight sets the standard for e-ink e-readers going forward and is well worth the extra money if you do a lot of nighttime reading. | The affordable Kobo Mini is a likable touch-screen e-ink e-reader that's too small for some and not quite small enough for others. |
