Inkplate offers some esp32 powered eink solutions, and someone built an eReader software for it, should be this one

But I have no idea how good it is. If you want to use it offline I suppose you could get any eReader that supports loading stuff via USB, You can manage a kindle library with calibre and turn off wifi after the first setup, for example.
