Hello everyone.

I want to get back into healthy habits. This includes reading books before bed and no screen before bed.

The thing is that (for now) my partner and our child all sleep in the same bedroom. I tend to get to bed after they are already asleep and don’t want to disturb them.

What’s the best option to read in the dark that doesn’t involve blue light screen (smartphone) or high luminosity?

Are there e-readers with very very dim light that still allow comfortable reading?

Thanks for your input.

    Kobo and pocketbook are good e-readers. Kindles have harder time with piracy and independent bookstores and you give money to bezos.

    I had pocketbook. Not the best way to read comics or pdfs but for books is great. Customization is tricky but doable.

      I haven’t had a problem pirating books and reading them on my kindle. Just make sure you’re downloading an epub and you’re gucci. The send to kindle feature is excellent and your ebook shows up in your kindle within minutes.
