New to e-ink reader / Android tablet. Suggestions?

I just picked up an Onyx Boox Nova 2, mostly because I wanted something lightweight to travel with that I could also hook my bluetooth keyboard up to for writing. Main uses for the tablet are reading and writing. How should I maximize those activities and what other suggestions do you have to get the most out of it? Graphic novels? Manga?

I have loaded both the Kindle and Play Books apps onto it and they work fine, but I know nothing about other options I have for finding/reading books.

I've never been able to find a *great* writing app (typing, not stylus) for Android. Something like Bear Notes for iOS. I believe I've tried everything on the market. The "app" that runs the fastest on the Nova 2 is Writer, which runs incredibly well, but it's a web app so not perfect for offline use (though will handle it). Suggestions?

Also, reviews suggest that this tablet is amazing for Manga, which I know nothing about and have never tried (and I don't speak Japanese). Is there a low-cost issue/book that you'd suggest I check out to see if it works for me? Where/what are the e-ink solutions for graphic novels or manga?

Lastly, what other uses might exist that I don't even know about? I am very familiar with Android already so am looking for e-ink specific things.

Thanks!
