Amazon Echo vs. Google Home for reading kindle books and elderly assistant

Post by Muri »

Hello,
I just learned that the Echo can read aloud books on kindle, which is a function that would be very useful to me while I do things around the house. We are also looking at one of these Echo or Google Home devices for MIL to have a way to verbally call for 911 as she has fallen twice. I don't see me using mine for anything other than reading the free kindle books that I get from my library. Any recommendations?
