I honest to god thought that my MiL was going to cry when she realised that I can play Candy Crush on my tablet and she can't. The only way to get the Play store on the Fire is by rooting it and then jumping through some hoops.
NEXUS 7 EBOOK READER APP INSTALL
Also, as noted above, basically everything is available for the Nexus, and on the off-chance that only Amazon has an app, or it's cheaper there, it's trivial to install the Amazon App Store to your Nexus.
