An easy on the eyes high definition screen where I can adjust the text size and control brightness are important to me. Are Nook and Kindle comparable this way?

This Kindle and the original older Kindle are both lightweight; Kindle Fire is heavier.
It's a pleasure to read on the lighter weight Kindles......if you simply want to READ....without all the bells and whistles.
Happy Reading.........and for what it's worth, I used to LOVE browsing in bookstores. Bookstores were my very favorite "haunt".......however, once you've tried the Kindle, you are hooked.
We have a Kindle on every level of our "tri level" home, in most rooms......but even if you only have ONE, they are so lightweight and easy to carry, hold and gentle on the eyes, for sure.
