Which kind of Nook do you have?
I have a Nook Simple Touch (a.k.a. Nook 2nd Edition). I have this because my wife bought it for me for my birthday. But I would have chosen this anyway because I would rather have the E Ink display than a back-lit screen because reading on back-lit screens for long times hurts my eyes especially in dimly lit rooms, and I already spend a lot of time looking at my laptop screen on smartphone screen. I am very happy with my Nook.

I am in the process of saving money towards my next nook which I think be the simple touch cause as fun as the color and tablet are to play with the LCD screen is harder on th e eyes.

Don't get me wrong i very much want the glow light nook but after getting the 1 i have the only way im upgrading is if i get a tablet lol I do love my nook very muchproudmom25 wrote:I have the Nook simple touch I actually got it for mother's day from hubby. I love it I seem to never loose my place and with 3 kids i def needed something that would keep my page where i left off! It does not have a light what so ever I love to read in bed too but i found it alot more cheaper to get myself a clip on book light for a couple bucks versus upgrading to the nook light im not paying that much more for the same exact thing!!!

I have a Nook Color and I like it. Sometimes it is a bit sensitive to the tough though and I have not had that issue with my Kindle.
I have also noticed that when I try to download books from places other than Nook (eg Gutenberg-org etc) the Nook requires more steps.
I use both readers, but like the Kindle Fire a tad better than the Nook Color.
Huggles,
Katja

I homeschool all four of them, and we dedicate Wednesdays strictly to detailed studies of the arts. We have to do it all on the go, as we spend the entire day in a different town. I have found a lot of apps that we use for this purpose that have come in very handy, especially for entertaining the youngest!
We all love our e readers but they will never replace a real book. I try very hard to maintain a balance of technology and "tradition". Nooks definitely come in handy!!
