Unlock hands-free Kindle reading for just $38 with these two accessories

Listen, I do a lot of yoga… book yoga, that is. You know, when you’re reading your Kindle in bed but you start aching so you twist and turn into various positions, trying to stay comfortable so you can keep devouring that crazy addictive story you just can’t put down? Well, I’m also happy to say that book yoga can become a thing of the past with two nifty Kindle accessories: this gooseneck tablet stand that’s now $22 (33% off) and this remote page turner that’s now $16 (36% off). Together, that’s only $38 — and it’ll change your life! The gooseneck tablet holder is compatible with devices as small as 4.7 inches and as large as 10.5 inches, so nearly all Kindles and e-readers ever made. It clamps onto any table, nightstand, or even the side of your bed, and it has a 35-inch neck that you can twist into any position. And the remote page turner has two parts: a clip that attaches to your Kindle and a remote button that triggers the clip to tap the Kindle screen and flip to the next page. Imagine cozying up under your blankets and being able to read while staying warm! With both of these accessories, you’ll be living the dream like this lady on Instagram (similar but not the exact same products): View this post on Instagram A post shared by Nick Muir (@therealyounglawyer) No matter what kind of Kindle or e-reader you have — whether it’s the handy old model you’ve had for years or the upcoming Kindle Colorsoft with colored pages —...
