With age I’ve found it most comfortable to read for long periods by reading light type against a black background on electronic readers. I began with the Kindle Paperwhite but now use an iPad Pro. The iPad Mini is the ideal size for reading, but most often I read on the larger Pro that I use to make handwritten notes in bed before sleep. I still love the scent and feel of ink and paper, but — we do what we must.
