Not exactly a radical recommendation or anything, but have you tried a dedicated e-reader? No distractions possible that way, and you get the all the usual benefits -- e-ink screen, weeks-long battery, etc. I enjoy mine.

Kobos (maybe Kindles as well?) can display the cover of the current novel while they're sleeping.
