Is it something specific about a Kobo e-reader that is amazing or would any e-reader have turned you into an avid bookworm you think?

I have a Kobo and my wife has a Kindle - I like the Kobo way better, primarily because the Kindle is trying to sell me stuff all the time.

I prefer the Kindle because it’s so easy and cheap to buy books I don’t need to bother pirating.

Does it have the same selection as Amazon?

[–] Zana@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Most of it. 99% of the stuff they don't share is generally stuff you don't want to read. With that said there are a few Amazon exclusive series' like the "Cradle" series.
