No, I would not recommend buying a Nook as an ereader. I do have a Nook Simple Touch, which I bought in order to root it and use it as an Android device. For that purpose, it works well enough. I run a checklist app on it for keeping shopping lists and exercise set lists. When I bought it, I already
