My arms always get more tired than my eyes so i find myself wanting to read more but having to constantly shift around.
I don't know how many times I've been lying in bed reading, and drifted off daydreaming about building some kind of contraption mounted on the ceiling that I could put my book into and move around so that I could read lying on my back or either side, and only have to move to flip a page every minute or so.
5 minutes later, I realize that I've read a bunch of pages of my book and was not paying attention at all.
