    Video request: How to set up the Kobo to borrow books from the library. Merci.

    Thank you for the review. I'm a long time Kobo user and currently have the Forma. I've debating picking up the Libra Colour and I think your review sold me on it. I agree, as a Canadian the Kobo makes book purchasing and borrowing easy. As for my TBR list - it's the year of fantasy for me. Catching up on all things Sarah J. Maas at the moment.

    Love your personality and your video! New subscriber! I also have this device, I am like you, I like to have the latest eReader device! I haven't touched my Kindle either. The pen is great too. Works so well together.
    I finally finished "Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo" it was such a great book. Truly enjoyed it. Sad it's finished now though. I miss Evelyn, she's such a badass. 😂
    What have you been reading and how are you enjoying it?
    Keep up the great work on your videos! Truly enjoy your vibe and content! ❤

    Hi, thanks for this video! Do you think that while reading your ebooks in BW the screen is a little bit yellow compared to Kindle ot Kobo libra 2? 😊

    • @marypivin

      It is slightly more yellow, but I can only really see it when comparing side by side!

    • @nathalie8135
      @nathalie8135 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It's yellow to make it easier on the eyes. Like when people write on yellow lined paper. It's warm lighting which Kindle also has.

    Great review. I am also Canadian, from Vancouver. I had to return a Kindle Paperwhite as I realized that it was not compatible with the Libby app, already on my phone. Is the Overdrive seamless with the Libby app on the Kobo? Are there a lot of steps to connect with your own public library page? Merci pour votre review!

    Kobo also has Kobo Plus which is similar to KU. About the same price, not as many books as KU but they are adding content all the time..

    Do you adjust the brightness a little higher than a normal kindle? a lot of comments online talks about how dim the screen is than a normal e-reader.

    • @marypivin
      @marypivin  13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      To be honest, I do have to adjust the brightness settings a bit more than with the PaperWhite, but it's nothing major like the online reviews I've read while preparing this video!

    • @marypivin
      @marypivin  14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      From what I have experience, you need to buy the books from the Kobo store in order for it to sync with Kobo apps on other devices. I have not figure out if there is a way to do this with books from elsewhere yet!

    Do you feel like it's difficult to read outside? I've seen some people say that its screen is darker than the libra 2 or Kindle anda that makes reading outside harder.

      @marypivin  14 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Hi! I read outside all the time and personally don’t have any problems with it. Yes, it is different from the Kindle because it uses a different technology to display color, but it is not hard to read by any means 🥰

      Yes, does so through Overdrive the same backend that Libby uses as it's owned by the same company. Any holds and loans you have in your Libby account should work with the same library card when you login on the Kobo.

    Something else to consider: Kobo devices support .epub ebooks natively, Kindles do not. Calibre makes this less of an issue but with Kobo you can literally drag and drop your DRM free ebooks without the need of conversions. I love the Kindle as a device but them pushing their store so hard in the homescreen and not supporting open standards is unacceptable to me. I'm looking for a Kobo now, just not sure which to get (Libra Colour, Clara BW or Clara Colour...)
    The Drive integration seems extremely convenient too, I wish they also put that on the Clara devices, really shitty that they don't.
