Yup. I have a Likebook Ares that I put Tachiyomi on for manga. It's a bit bigger than my phone, and the aspect ratio is a much closer match to that of manga volumes. It's nice.

It's worth noting that the paper look isn't the only benefit of e-ink, it's also crazy power efficient. Only changing what is on the display requires power. Unless you use the front-light (e-ink has to be lit from the front, light cannot pass through the display), the battery life on these things can be weeks and even months.

If you want to get into books or comics, I recommend one, but starting off reading on your phone, which I did, is a good idea.
