Reading broadens and shapes your mind

Since I was a child, I have loved reading. Even now as an adult, I can’t go to a coffee shop without a book in my backpack. I even remember the first book I ever read: the Call of the Wild by Jack London. It’s the book of my childhood. It shaped my imagination in regards to what Canada is about—magnificent mountains, landscapes, harsh winters, and more. I looked at the Kobo store online, and voila, it is there and for less than a dollar I could download it to an e-reader and relive that amazing experience.

Reading is an amazing activity not only for your brain, but for your mind. It opens it, lets you imagine you can be one of the characters, and live a different life. Lately I’ve been getting into crime books, especially Agatha Christie’s books. They give me a thrill, but I do get a little impatient to discover who’s the real killer. Reading triggers a range of emotions in me; most importantly, it makes you feel things. Nowadays, reading is more accessible than ever, thanks to portable e-readers like the Kobo Sage. With a Kobo, there are no more excuses for not getting started on a new book!

Kobo Sage HD touchscreen eReader with stylus to read in style

If you are looking for an e-reader that lets you store all your books, the Kobo Sage HD touchscreen is what you need. Featuring 32GB of storage, it’s the perfect accessory to keep all your favourite titles, especially when you are on the go. Depending on what you are in the mood for, you can just choose from any genre without having to carry any book. Boasting a 1440 x 1920 resolution with Dark Mode on an 300 PPI E Ink Carta 1200 touchscreen, reading with a Kobo Sage is comfortable and easy on your eyes; you can keep reading for hours. Its waterproof design is also great to take it to the beach or by the pool—or just in the bath without worries. What’s also great is that you don’t have to worry about charging it up every hour since it can last up to weeks on a single charge.

Combined with the Kobo stylus that we are giving away in this contest, you will be able to make handwritten notes in eBooks or PDFs. It’s great for aspiring writers to jot ideas or anyone who likes to doodle notes and reminders. I think for me, it would be a great creative writing experience. I like that you don’t have to worry about carrying a pen and paper and can get those creative ideas rolling freely and edit and transfer them to a computer with ease.

We sent out for honest review this really cool Kobo Sage e-Reader to our blogger Ted Kritsonis. I recommend you to read it through, especially if you are figuring out which one between the Sage and the similarly designed new Libra 2 you might prefer. It’s a great read overall. Then come back, and enter this contest to win the Sage one.

  1. The 1440 x 1920 resolution with Dark Mode on an 300 PPI E Ink Carta 1200 touchscreen because it would be easier on my eyes.

  2. the large screen and long battery life is what I like because you can read for a long time without getting sore eyes.

  3. I love absolutely everything about “Kobo Sage HD touchscreen eReader” but one thing that stands out for me is the new Dark Mode for less eye strain in darker confines and also that the screen is flush with the device’s entire panel, which gives it a seamless look. These features are important to me because I am mostly a nighttime reader, in bed most of the time. Since I had cataract surgery, my eyes are very sensitive to light, daylight even with no sun and especially the screen on my laptop computer. By evening I am turning the brightness down to a much darker screen to rest my eyes and to manage longer time on my computer or in this case a Reader. This is only one of the features I love on this eReader. Thanks for the opportunity to win this eReader.

  4. Waterproof is my favorite. Imagine once the pandemic is over, how happy to read Eat, Pray, Love again by the sunny beach.

  5. I love that I can access books from any genre, and I also love that it is waterproof so I can take it to the beach in the summer! Finally I love the amount of storage for lots of reading!

  6. I love that I can access books from any genre, and I also love that it is waterproof so I can take it to the beach in the summer!

  11. My favourite feature about the Kobo is the 32GB of storage, so I can have more than one book on the go and save favourites!

  12. I love the battery life the most of all the features as it is convenient being able to use it for weeks without recharging!

  13. Seems there are a few things I like about the Kobo Sage! It should work great with the Kobo Stylus that is also available separately, quick charge that lasts up to weeks, so it states, 8 inch high resolution screen and it’s waterproof! My children will also be able to use it and it’ll motivate my whole family to read more! All kids enjoy electronics and if reading can be considered being on an electronic, it’s a bonus in my opinion!
