If you have a dedicated space for reading in your home, this charming book nook is just the thing to enhance your next reading respite—and the new upgraded silhouette with lock and ledge lets you transform it into a tablet stand as well. “I’ve never seen anything like it in 35 years of looking for bookstands,” remarked Levenger Co-Founder Steve Leveen upon seeing it for the first time. Meet the Book Niche, the ‘hold-my-place’ bookmark bookstand. When you reach a stopping point in your reading, simply perch your open book on the triangular edge to hold your place until you’re ready for the next chapter, or use the removable ledge to hold your book upright. A cup holder awaits your mug of coffee or tea, and the suede-lined tray keeps your phone or eyeglasses nearby. (Have both? Slip the glasses inside the triangle.)
