From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For reading it’s easy enough to find an old Android phone that is large and just throw Lineage or something on there.
Personally I have an older ASUS C7. I rooted it and stripped away everything non-essential. I have a huge SD card in there with absolutely all my ebooks and comics, and I keep it in airplane mode. The battery keeps for months. Literally.
