 |
|
I have to say I love reading books and I never thought my reading pleasure could be increased by a book holder but it happened, it's one of those why didn't someone invent it years ago, called the gimble book holder - it wraps around the outside of my paperback book keeping it open yet pages are easily turned and because it's so light weight it stays on my book even if I drop it or put it down, keeping my page - I love it.
Has anyone else got one or has an opinion on Book Holders
Kate

I have a gimble too. I find it particularly useful for reading while eating but I confess it's too much of a fiddle to use all the time.
I'm more inclined to use it with thicker books too, as they are heavier to hold comfortably in one hand and the gimble makes it easier. |

Hi Karen and welcome to Babbling Books.
I bought two Gimbles - the large and small and just couldnt get on with them at all.
I know loads of people really like them - but not for me!
