    An eReader. Once you have one you can read for entertainment and knowledge anywhere from free to any budget.

    Yes, you can read with pretty much anything with a screen but a nice dedicated device will encourage focused reading.

      On that note, you don’t need to buy books from Amazon, Google, Apple or Kobo. And no I’m not talking about raising the Jolly Roger.

      Project Gutenberg offers public domain books for free to anyone in all the formats. While Overdrive or Libby offers you Books, newspapers magazines, and audiobooks for the low low cost of a free library card. Down side on Libby is wait times for some things. Audiobooks can be worse, upto a month or more for the most popular books.

      My Kindle is definitely my favorite way to read anything without heavy diagrams.

      Fits in a fanny pack, doesn’t burn my retinas, battery lasts incredibly long.
