Hard clear cases are usually polycarbonate and tend to crack at the corners, especially if it’s cold or the fit is tight over a glass screen protector. For your budget, go with a simple one-piece TPU or silicone case with thicker, rounded corners; they flex on impact and don’t stress-crack. Install it gently (top corners first), avoid taking it off often, and keep it away from alcohol-based cleaners. As a stopgap, a thin bead of clear silicone along the inner rim cushions better than tape and won’t trap grit.

Password managers sound good but they get hacked sometimes and then all your stuff is exposed. You'll forget the master password anyway and lock yourself out. Changing passwords constantly is a pain because sites force it. Everything requires unique ones now which is impossible to track manually. Those recovery questions are useless too since answers change over time. Don't rely on your phone either because batteries die at the worst moments.

Short version is yes that model story and chapter breaks match that model difference you feel is layout. Trade paperback is generally close to hardcover for comfort while small pocket sized editions can feel cramped. If you don't want to guess and count words on that model middle line in that model preview and glance at total pages. that model big jump in page count points to larger type and looser spacing and if that model word count per line sits around ten you are in safe territory. I do that every time and it has saved me from squinting more than once. 😎

After dinner I put the phone on the hall table and plug it in. I read a paperback. I sort printed photos for albums. I play a CD or the radio. Alarm clock on the nightstand, not the phone. It repeats every night so it sticks.
