I cracked that code.

Google "brancaster accent with swivel egg chair" and note the enclosing high-backed versions with wide winged tops.

With a matching footstool (search "brancaster egg chair footstool"), you can put your feet up, tilt back. The best reading experience I have ever found, by far. You can rest you hands and book on your thighs and read without any neck strain or posture effort.

The tilting and swiveling also enables continuous posture adjustment, which helps when reading as for sleeping.

Comfortable enough even for studying with highlighters. (Amazon, "Wood pen holder desk round walnut" square bottom, round top + "Mr. Pen- Aesthetic Highlighters". Such a great combo I have them in several rooms.)

I am sure I sound like an ad, but when you find combinations of basic things that each work "better", it is great.

I bought the chairs and respectively matching stools for their style (I have light leather and velvet Jack versions), and was surprised at how much of a practical upgrade they were.
