The Good

The back has a dusty rose look and is not glossy so doesn’t create finger prints. It appears small but is quite solid and easy to use. It has a very stylish look.

The Bad

The E-ink display could have been better with slightly darker letters. Also there is no way of adjusting contrast. There is no backlighting to the screen. Text to speech function is not present. Internet capability is absent hence one has to download eBooks with the help of a USB cable.
