Hi everyone, When I show Double Highlight, I am using a protected Advanced Reader Copy ascm file that has been converted to an authorized ePub by Adobe Digital editions. I hope that helps. - MJ
I love my Kobo Libra Colour. I prefer it to my Kindle. I did not know about the colour change. It looks fun.
I love stumbling on something like that. Enjoy!
Thanks for explaining acronyms, I wish more people would do that!
Anytime!
I’m in Australia, and here, our library ebooks are only compatible with Kobo, which is why I am contemplating purchasing one. Otherwise I’d be happy to keep using my Kindle for ebooks. Obviously I use audio and read physical books too but library books for me can only be read on my phone or tablet, so I’m thinking about a Kobo eReader. Thanks for offering your honest opinion!
Thanks! I really do enjoy this device - but do see yourself.
Thank you, you convinced me to purchase the kobo and I love it. I also purchased the pen loop you suggested and love it. I find myself reaching for it more than my paperwhite due to the color. It is so worth it.
You are so welcome! I am so glad you are having a wonderful reading experience! Thanks for sharing with me. 😊🤗
Thanks for the tech check-in and I appreciate the segment ended like a fashion shoot. Glad you figured out the ARC situation.
@@eriebeverly That breeze was perfectly timed! 😂😂😂
I love my kobo libra colour! In Canada you can get your library books on kobo but not kindle, which is a huge plus for me. I’ve loved the kobo since I switched in May, and I’ve read more graphic novels with the colour. Currently reading Tress of the Emerald Sea!
That’s fantastic! Happy Reading! 😊
Thanks for the review! I've got an older Kobo Nia (I've had one Kobo or another for about fifteen years now), and was thinking of getting the pretty colour one when this one reaches its natural end. It's great to know the battery life is still really good.
In a bit of a reading slump, but I'm hopefully starting _ACOTAR_ in the next few days in audio, and _The Seven Skins of Esther Wilding_ on the kobo (Yay! Library!)
Thanks! It’s a great e-reader. I’m enjoying ACOTAR so far.
@@M-J Yes, me too! I'm extremely mixed on romantasy as sometimes I love it, and sometimes it feels very thin (I wish I had Gareth's sunny outlook), but a few chapters in and I'm really enjoying it.
@@justineetzkorn9594 excellent!
Thank you for the review MJ. Glad you’ve enjoyed your experience especially as an annotator. Just getting used to the Kobo Nia & love it as a big library user (no UK Library Kindle compatibility) but good to know about future possibilities 👍🏻
Thanks, it’s turning into my favorite e-reader.
im in the UK just bought it and love how light it is and the colour screen but found trying to download books from Libby/Overdrive very frustrating and cant get it to work. dont like the fact books are expensive and cant use the library so will be sending it back
Ugh! Sorry to read that. The Libby/Overdrive system should be much better than what it is in the UK. I’ve heard complaints along those same lines.
I have been tempted by the Boox over the Kobo for color eink because that device can run the Kindle app as well as most other ereader applications. But I don’t annotate which seems like the Kobo strength.
@@anotherbibliophilereads I have both the kobo color and the Bigme color ( Boox competitor ) and I like the Bigme better as I have all of my reader apps in one place.
Watching your videos, I have been thinking about the Kobo Libra Colour 2 for WEEKS! I have been using Kindles for YEARS, I want to wait for Kindle to come out with their colour version (rumored to come out next year… but it feels like FOREVER). I guess I have only one question that will give me the final push to consider the Kobo, how do you revisit all the annotations? Including the ones on the library books and are they still available after the books are returned?
@@lylainewu1200 Hello 👋🏻 I’m going to have to put this to the test for a future video with specific details! I can tell you there is a dedicated “annotations” menu for purchased books and owned ARC’s as well as link to Dropbox and Google Drive. I hope that little bit of info. helps for now.
Nice update! I hadn’t spotted that double highlighting trick
Thanks. You don’t know ALL the tricks. ☺️
Color just makes things more exciting 😍
I agree with you. 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you for doing this :) You’re awesome!!
Dear Santa, …..
A fantastic Christmas gift!🎁
I still love mine....but the lack of non-mainstream titles on it still has me reaching for my kindle. I have accidentally double highlighted before...but now I need to try mixing the colours!
Yeah, KU is where it’s at! So cool! 👏🏻👏🏻
I tried to double highlight
Sadly it doesn't work on my kobo libra color
That purple highlight would have been so cool
@@jenlewis8003 i’ve never seen anyone do it i’m trying to figure it out too, not working either. :(
@@jenlewis8003 I am showing it on a ePub ARC that I converted using Adobe Digital Editions a maybe that’s the missing price?
@@tif603 Hmmmm. I was able to replicate it twice. I used an ARC acsm file that Adobe Digital Editions converted over to an ePub - maybe that’s the secret?
I just ordered a Kobo, I have a Kindle Paperwhite and a Scribe which I love. I plan to transfer my Nook library to the Kobo. I just can’t justify buying another Nook device from Barnes & Noble. I can’t seem to find any how to videos on the transfer. Any suggestions?
Hmmmmm. I’m new at transferring myself. I would search specifically for Nook to Kobo videos. Maybe watch tutorial videos on Calibre as well - maybe you will discover the tip you need. Best of luck & enjoy your Kobo.
Looks impressive. I have looked at their site. I have a Kindle and a Nook. But I may get a Kobo reader at some point
It’s a fun one for sure!
I just got one for my birthday. On my way to buy a stylus!
Happy Birthday! I hope you LOVE it! Don't forget stylus sleeves if you want to change the color. 😊
