I am really good at getting into the settings and turning off like 98% of the notifications. I am currently on the new cheap nook. Battery life isn’t the best but otherwise it is nice. Also I keep the screen at minimum brightness and with white text on a dark screen which has helped me a lot when waking up in the wee hours as I now doze off in 20 minutes to an hour instead of turning on the reading light and end up being awake till I finish the book 2+ hours later.
