Abstract: A unique illuminated, flexible, portable reading material support apparatus permits the user to read more easily in certain situations, such as while sitting or lying in bed, due to the use of a special base, a goose-neck flexible support, and a swivel attachment means connecting the goose neck flexible support to a specially contoured reading support platform. The reading material support platform is comprised of a linear deep recess for receiving the binding (back) of a book or other reading material, top and bottom ledges, and left and right reading material page supports that vary in depth from that of the deep linear recess from whence they originate, to zero depth at the extreme left and right edges, respectively. This topography is designed to match the "natural" contours of opened reading material positioned upon the reading material support platform.
