bedtime reading
Pre-sleep page-turning
Bedtime reading is material read before sleep, typically light or relaxing rather than demanding.
The phrase implies something enjoyable but not so gripping it keeps you awake: I keep a novel on my nightstand for bedtime reading.
It can describe the activity itself or characterize a text's suitability: Dense philosophy isn't exactly bedtime reading.
