Glad I found this as I've been reading a thick hardcover book and my hands were getting tired holding the book while reading. Nice and lightweight and feels sturdy enough, although it can take a little fussing around getting seated in the right position in order to keep the book tilted at the right angle for reading.

Great product to put on a table or counter. I haven't tried placing it on my lap as that's not how I read. It's much better than bending your neck down to read and better than my preferred position: reading with my arms on my knees and the book on the bed.

Really satisfied with this purchase!

Love this bookseat, especially when reading hardcover books while in bed. I have been searching for a product that does exactly this for quite some time. Perfect gift for the reader in your life!

Purchased this for my dad that lost use of his right hand . He can now do what he loves and read without the frustration of not being able to hold his books . Great quality , well made & very comfortable to use .

Look, I like physical books. Especially when the missus and I curl up into bed and make like Mr and Mrs Brady and read before going to sleep in head to toe 70s karate pajamas. Yeah, you thought Marsha's nose was broken by a football. Nah, it was a foot. Period. Carol don't speak "sass".

Anyway, for twenty years, the missus has held my book out in front of me as I read. She credits this 2 hrs a night for her dromedary hunch and shoulders of tungsten.

She asked if I would consider a book pillow. I replied that I didn't speak "sass". She said that it wasn't a book that you fall asleep on, like that House of the Seven Gables crap from High School, but a pillow that holds your book. I blinked once. Twice. Thrice. Frice. I told her that we could try it and it better be good, or I'd go Sam the Butcher on her. That dude looked like the Lion guy from the Wizard of Oz.

It arrived and I was dubious. Nay, skeptical. How could this pillow and plastic thing hold my medieval tomes that double as coffee tables? Look here voice cracking Peter, this thing holds whatever you place in it. Books, hookah, cousin Oliver. I'm now an avowed fan of these. In fact, I'm starting a cult. Yearly fees due every May. Robes are overthere. For the love of all that is holy, buy one of these even if it means stretching your wallet like Bobby's tiny body on a swingset.
