My reading device of choice these days is a Nexus 7 - It's significantly thinner and a touch lighter than the Kindle Fire and is useful for other things when I need it to be, with better hardware overall. Actually it's become my go-to tablet for pretty much everything that isn't "testing stuff on the iPad."
I agree about distractions, but if I'm reading, I just put it in silent mode and read. You don't have to use the social apps and check email constantly just because you can.
I know some people prefer the eInk display for reading, but I do most of my reading indoors and like (and at one point needed) the added contrast of the backlit display.
