At night while dh is watching tv, I use a clip-on book light. Mine will hold a charge for about 3 days, and I read a lot. I've never used or looked at a nook, but my friend loves hers.
Only 3 days??? I read a lot and I charge about every 3 weeks. Maybe it's something about the new ones?
I have the Kindle and love it! My battery keeps a charge for over 4 weeks. I just leave the wifi turned off when not needed and the book off when not reading. The last charge was June 15 and it still has over half left. I have the smaller one too, fits in my purse and goes everywhere I go. Would not leave it home, ever! Never used the Nook so don't know anything about that one.
