One thing about tech these days: there aren’t enough buttons. Our phones and tablets are all touchscreen, and even e-readers have lost their buttons. That’s why I love the Kobo Libra Colour so much.

Page-turning remotes for e-readers are the hottest accessory. They’re especially coveted in the colder months when all you want to do is keep your hands under a blanket but still be able to read your book. On Dec. 2, Kobo launched its very own remote, making a device that’s native to its e-readers.
As a lover of the page turner I got for my Kindle, I was thrilled to try out Kobo’s new remote. And guess what? Amazon better watch out and start working on a Kindle remote — stat.
