Whether you start your day with some fiction, take a break to read works that inspire your during the workday, or end your day turning the pages of a thriller late into the night, reading is the best way to unwind, learn, keep your brain sharp, and disconnect from the apocalypse to recharge.
Whether you opt for paper, a Kindle, or your phone screen, reading is a relaxing and healthy lifestyle choice. Here are five tools for readers that will make reading more comfortable and easier.
This clip-on book light
When the people around you want the lights out but that thriller has you in its grip, whip out this clip-on book ($6), clip it to the top of the page to illuminate the text, and keep on reading.
You can adjust the light color and brightness to protect your own vision and the tiny headlamp is easy to adjust.
It clips easily to your book or to a Kindle, if your lacks backlighting, and it’s hard to beat the price.
This is one of those tools for readers that is small enough to pack along to use on a flight or train ride, too.
A better bookmark
When your preferred reading device is made of paper, keep these magnetic bookmarks on hand to mark your page.
The colors enhance your book and they will stop you from dog-earing those pages.
They are a great way to keep a recipe you like to repeat easy to access, too
There are three color options.
A remote-control page turner for your Kindle
When I first saw this, I rolled my eyes. But then I was deep into a thriller and my hands kept falling asleep from holding the device. Then I saw the wisdom.
This is one of those tools for readers that would be great on a cold night, too, so you can keep your hands under the cover — with the remote in one hand — and keep the pages of your Kindle turning without have to reach outside the warmth.
The pillow that holds your book or tablet
I absolutely love this thing. It holds my Kindle while I read in bed or in a lounge chair so I don’t have to hold it, making my arms tired or numb.
It works very well with my Surface Pro resting in one of those slots, too. This allows me to work in a recliner or in bed without struggle. There is even a pocket to stash my stylus in.
Each side offers a slightly different angle, making it super versatile. It comes in five colors.
The Kindle Scribe e-reader & notebook
If you write, edit, or teach, the Kindle Scribe is must have.
Not only is the larger format screen more pleasant to read on than the smaller Kindles but you can write on documents to mark them up.
Send a PDF, Word file, or most any other format to it and it shows up on your screen as if you printed it there. Use the pen to mark up, circle, jot notes, or do whatever you would do if you had a piece of paper in front of you. Then send it back to your computer.
Absolute. Game. Changer.
