Why I needed a portable book stand for working and reading at home

My job has me using a laptop often and looking through books all the time, so I practically have turtle neck already. Keeping your neck straight is important for avoiding forward-head posture, and that is exactly when you need a book stand! I also work from home now and then, so I needed a portable book stand.

Before using a portable book stand for working at home

This portable book stand I got to try was a great size for carrying around and lightweight too, so it was really easy to take with me.
