Promising review:
This is an AWESOME little product. I hate holding my book up while reading in bed. This holds my pages open and keeps the book flat and sturdy enough that I can hold it with one hand on the corner of a page, and it stays flat. Works as well on little, thin books as with whoppers. I bloody well love it!!!! —
