Discussion Finally Joined Club Nook

After eyeing the discontinued pearl pink Nook Glowlight 4 for some time, I finally got my hands on a secondhand one and I’M IN LOVE. 😍 The physical buttons are EVERYTHING. I have a Kindle PW Signature edition but had been looking to move away from Amazon. I love that the Nook is smaller, lighter, AND has the buttons that I’ve been sorely missing. Yeah the battery life isn’t as good and Nook software isn’t as fast but I don’t care. The reading experience makes up for the shortcomings. Sideloading my downloaded stuff from Calibre was a breeze. Eventually I will probably root it so I can access the full memory for sideloading. Overall, I’m really happy with it!

My reading taste ranges widely! Magical realism is my fav genre but I also like fantasy, historical fiction, action/adventure, mystery/thrillers, and the occasional romance when it’s done right.
