I mostly read comics and I like reading them on a tablet. Reading books and comics through the webinterface of my book management system (Komga) which is running on a local NAS. Since it accessible from any webbrowser, it is easily accessible.

Minor dislikes are the lack of some special options. -For example setting a permanent crop for all pages so it reads easily without white borders. -Or being able to read the top and bottom of a comic separately (for landscape reading), and still being able to scroll through it as if they are regular pages. -Color correct a book so it looks better on a specific device For such options however, I'm afraid a special software would be required. Which in turn comes with it's own negatives.

I got myself an Onyx Boox tablet. It's about A4 and has an eink screen. It's a comfortable weight to golf in one hand. The in built reader has enough options to format e books for I like them. Being able to annotate is handy too.

Dark (not black) filter for text-only titles, and sepia filter for comics and other works with drawings.

Also physical controls. Android with the volume buttons to move between pages for example, and on a modded PS Vita with the appropriate comic reader, L and R to move between pages, right stick to zoom in/out, left stick to move in the axis of the current page, and iirc select to show the page number bar.

Having a way to sort the books by read percentage also helps a lot, though sadly, the only one that does it that I found outside of the Google Play is KO Reader, and it is designed for powerful tablets, not a standard phone.
