   For awhile when I was reading Game of Thrones, I tended to listen to the   
   audiobook while reading the eBook.  It helped me keep focus on the story as it   
   tended to jump around quite a bit along with the myriad of characters.   
      
   As I was reading before bed I tried dark mode which I didn't like, but there   
   was also a sepia mode which I found more pleasing on the eyes at the end of   
   the day.  I do have a Kobo ereader as well which supports EPUB files which I   
   did use in the same manor, but sometimes it was hard to re-sync my place in   
   the EPUB & audiobook.
