The Nook GlowLight Plus Gets No Respect, Not Even From B&N
There’s no denying the fact the popularity of Nook ereaders has been on the decline for several years now.

Kindle Software Update Version 5.8.9 Adds New Features
Amazon has started rolling out another software update, version 5.8.9, for Kindle ereaders that adds some new manga features and a new text alignment option for left-justified text.
