Which E-Reader
Right now I have a nook. Thinking of replacing it, is there one with a delete button. Seems I'm always downloading books I really do not want to read. I'd like to just see them gone.LOL.

I have a Kindle with a built in light a couple of months ago. This is my first E-reader and I like it. If I go to the home page I can delete books I've downloaded by tapping them and getting a menu of options.

Please do your research. The Kindle has it's own format as do some of the others and I have found I can't always get the books I want in the right format. I have a Sony e reader but it isn't sold here anymore and it used epub which most books I have found are in that format. I can't remember the brand name but there is another tablet that worked as a e reader as well as other things so check around.

I have had Sony E reader-issues in bright sunlight, kindle mark two-was good, damaged screen, kindle paper white, which I love as you can read it in any lighting including bright sunlight, or in the middle of the night when I can't sleep and it does not disturb my husband.

I love my Kindle Keyboard! It will play audiobooks as well, not simply read the text in a computer voice. Didn't like using the Kindle Fire as an e-reader because it doesn't have the non glare, easy on the eyes electronic ink that dedicated e-readers have.

I have an older Nook that I don't recommend, it can't delete. Even the "test" books. The newer ones might. I have been considering purchasing a tablet for reading, not a "reader". Then I am not limited by the reader.

I have an MP3 player. Yes, you can delete anything you want to. I love it, as I wear it while I am sewing. I've listened to quite a few books that I have been looking forward to for years, but don't have the time because I'm always sewing! ! !
I get the books through the library, so it's free.
