I got a Kobo and it does bookmarks, text selection and dictionary search fine. I shop from a variety of places, but only buy DRM-free EPUB books (https://www.ebooks.com/en-us/drm-free/ for example)

I use Calibre to organise the books (and convert formats if necessary) and push them to the device.

I backup the entire collection using a USB backup drive irregularly (once a month or so). I'm experimenting with Syncthing to backup to a rented baremetal server. So far so good.
