I've used and reviewed dozens of e-readers over the years, but the 5-inch Kobo Mini remains my favorite for one simple reason: It was small. While it lacked useful features like screen lighting and page turn buttons, its size made it an e-reader I actually wanted to carry every day. The $69 Xteink X4 e-reader […] Read more ›

I was tear gassed by the government for the first time in July 2020 at one of the many Black Lives Matter protests that broke out all over the country.
