Of course, it only works if you are reading a physical book and not an ebook, but I know the rule is you are supposed to limit your exposure to screen light, not sure if ebook exposure is counted as screen time or not, you'd have to research that. But for physical books anyway, the darker I have the room, the better. I take my night meds and then read with the booklight until I start getting sleepy.
Ebook does count as screen time, but there might be a “night time” setting that doesn’t use blue light (the reason you’re not supposed to use screens at night).
