One of the most personal technologies has to be the ereader, like those offered by Kobo. I realize that some of them can surf the web and view multimedia, but for me, they are made for reading books. They are perfectly designed for that one simple task. They are lightweight, with a display that is easy on the eyes in daylight, or at night, and they easily fit in one hand. Load one with all your favourite books and it quickly holds a special place in your heart. Enter this contest and you might just win the newest ereader from Kobo, the Kobo Clara HD.

Why do I love Kobo eReaders so much

Let me tell you a little story, a true story. Once upon a time I had a Kobo ereader, a gift from my children, and I used it all the time. I read a huge assortment of novels on my cherished Kobo: mysteries, historical fiction, classics, trashy pop fiction, non-fiction and more. My brain was filled with great characters and great stories. I took my Kobo everywhere: on cruises in the Caribbean, on flights to Europe, and even back and forth in my car daily so that at any moment I could take a few minutes’ break, just me and my Kobo.

Then tragedy struck: one evening while rushing to take groceries into the house to make dinner, I forgot my Kobo in the car. Wouldn’t you know it, a thief broke into my car and stole it. I was shattered! End of story. However, I still feel the loss. You never know how much you love something until it’s gone.

  1. I don’t own kobo reader but I’ve seen some of my friends’ and I love how paper-like the screen is, from the brightness, saturation and how easy it is to flip the pages by swiping.

  3. This version of the e-reader shares the same name as me. Having a selection of books at a fraction of the paper weight is the best.

  4. I love kobo ereaders because I can have all my books on hand, esp on holidays. Sometimes I don’t know what I will be in the mood for reading…so having a variety at my fingertips is great!

  6. I don’t own a Kobo or any ereader but I would love the availability of a huge library at my fingertips!

  8. would love kobo because i love reading and i can take this anywhere i travel without the bulk of a book!! thanks for the opportunity

  9. I would love to have a kobo so that I can bring lots of books with me when I am on vacation!

  14. There are many reasons why I love a kobo, all the books I can take with me anywhere, it’s light, it’s so easy to get new books but my favourite is being able to lie in bed and easily turn pages with one hand.

  16. I have never used a Kobo reader but I guess the accessibility to so much material would be an advantage.

  17. I love books, but they’re just so much better when you can always have them on hand with you and specially on a good device that you know can deliver good quality and experience.

  19. I like the Kobo readers with the soft back-lit display so I can read in bed but don’t have a glare. It also always keeps my spot in the book!

  22. I would love to be able to travel with all of my favourite books without worrying about space. My friend has one and so easy to travel with. Thanks for the chance!

  25. I love reading books,magazine but the actual hardbound one and they are heavy and took much space, so I love to own one of this as I like to transfer to digital, having said that would love to gift to my mom as she travels to use watch the kid so a perfect treat. Thank you..

  28. Would love to win this great Kobo Ereader. Great for downloading so many interesting books that can be read anywhere anytime. What a convenience.

  29. I love that I can load up a 1000 page hardcover and read it easily. I have wanted a Kobo for so long; fingers crossed!

  30. I love having hundreds of books available to read at any time. Plus being able to access the thousands of books available through the library.

  32. I love that the Kobo is lightweight, I can carry my books with me anywhere, and made for reading with it’s antiglare screen.

  41. I love reading! But that has it’s cons because I read through books so quickly! The librarians at my local library know me by name because of how often I go to get books! If I had a Kobo e-reader, I would save myself a lot of time and I might even be able to have enough books downloaded to last me more than 2 days!

  42. The feature of an e-reader that I appreciate the most is the lightweight portability of “books”.

  44. I love being able to borrow library books without having to go to the library and without having to remember to return it on time. Oh yeah, I also don’t have to get out of my pjs to do it 😉

  49. When going on vacation, I love the ability to bring a bunch of different choices so I can read whatever I feel like in the moment.
