Make Your E-Reader Your Own with These Cheap and Nifty Accessories

By Jamie Epstein, TMCnet Web Editor

Right now, e-readers are hot ticket items that are making it cool to read again. However, sometimes users are finding themselves with neck aches at the end of a long reading session due to the fact that they are typically looking down at their tablet. And sometimes these screens can get pretty messy really quickly, so book lovers are finding themselves constantly trying to clean off the screen with the softest material they can find that is within arm’s reach or even squinting to see their material in the dark as in certain environments the e-readers don’t give off a new light. In addition, sometimes you want to listen to something but not all e-readers come with audio functionality.



If you find your pockets short after purchasing one of these products, never fear because here to the rescue are some great new and highly innovative add-ons that can easily customize your e-reader to best fit your individual needs.

1.       Moleskine E-reader Stand

Go hands free as you enter your fantasy world with this great stand. For a mere $11, readers no longer have to constantly hold on to their digital book for dear life or even keep their head tilted in a downward position. Now with this stand, simply place either your e-reader or actual book into it and read for as long as you like. A bonus of this stand is it is extremely light, allowing users to bring it anywhere they go with ease.  

2.       M-Edge Antiglade Protectors with Cleaning Cloth

To kill two birds with one stone, take a closer look at M-Edge offerings which include antiglare protectors for multiple devices that comes complete with a cleaning cloth for a price of $20. No longer focus in on smudges on your screen, just read with delight.

 3.       Merkury eReader Reading Light for Kindle

Made specifically for Kindle lovers out there, this light can be simply attached to your e-reader to allow you to continue on in your book no matter where you are whether it is in space, in a cave or just in dimly lit room for less than $10.

4.       Chill Pill Audio’s Mobile Speakers

Although Kindle Touch and Fire, Nook Color and Tablet come with their own speakers, sometimes readers desire much higher audio quality than what those tiny speakers can handle. So, look no farther than Chill Pill Audio’s mobile speakers which come in a variety of colors including black, red, purple, pink and white and can dramatically intensify any audio experience. Although topping at our list as the most expense accessory at $50, you can’t really put a price on a good quality sound system, right?
