Amazon kindle. It didnt let me plug it into my computer and upload books to use it without internet access. Everything needed sending through amazon. I should have expected this but it was so locked down and filled with ads to the point it was unusable. I attempted to jailbreak it and it bricked so i threw it away and went back to using calibre on my computer. I would really like an offline open source ebook reader.
Get a boox, runs android.
You can even install the Kindle app. But seriously, there are bunch of good ereader apps.
They unfortunately come with some proprietary Chinese apps by default
You don't have to use those apps.
