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.

  3. Personally, I do not enjoy reading as much as anyone that would enjoy this. But something like this is perfect for my girlfriend who loves reading with a passion, so this entry is for her amazing self

  7. I love that I can read several books at the same time without having to carry heavy books around when I’m on my vacation

  12. Only had an opportunity to use one when I borrowed it through a friend. I love how it’s a library in the palm of your hands. You can take it anywhere with you! It’s lightweight and easy to use.

  14. I have an amazon eReader, but I am disappointed with the lighting tech of it. I would like to have a Kobo and witness the superior quality of the eReader.

  19. I love the idea of having dozens of books in my hands, having my own personal electronic library.

  20. I don’t have an e-reader yet like Kobo. If I luckily win this, then there will be a variety of ebooks that are available through my fingertips!

  21. The best thing about this is that you can take your books with you when you travel. No extra suitcase required for you collection of books. Thank you for the chance to win.

  24. I love the Kobo Reader, because the pages look like a book with the white background which makes it like I’m actually reading from a book.

  25. I love how easy the Kobo reader fits in the palm of my hand and use the other to swipe to the next page.

  27. I love that Kobo readers are easier to read than other tablet readers. The lighting also makes it easier to read.

  29. I love my waterproof Kobo because I can use it anywhere, but this one looks even better!

  33. ce super kobo me permettrait d’avoir sous la main tous les livres que je souhaite lire et de les choisir en fonction de mon humeur

  34. Books are so expensive now and having the ability to download and read so very many books at your leisure…it’s truly amazing. Love Kobo!

  37. Easy to carry lots of books, and ebooks are less expensive than physical books 🙂 Thanks for the contest!

  39. I like the concept that I could have more books ready to read than I ever will before I die (hopefully of old age).

  42. What I love about a Kobe e-reader is that you can take many books with you on vacation and it takes up less luggage room!!

  44. I love reading on the beach or in the bath. My books all show this by their weathered, wet and dried look. Kobo being waterproof is a huge draw for me.

  47. It’s one of the few single-purpose devices I’ve used – no phone calls, internet (of any quality worth viewing), music, tweets, or Instagram, etc, just uninterrupted reading.

  48. Being able to get books while staying at home has at least tripled my book reading! Love how compact and light weight it is. Excited that the Clara has backlighting too.

  49. I like that I can take an ereader everywhere I go and when waiting I can have my favorite book to read.
