I have totally done this!! You gotta do what you gotta do, the yarn calls!
It also prompted me to buy this neck lamp for my projects and one for my husband so he can read at night.
I use a solar lamp and clip it to the top right hand corner of my Remarkable. Zero fuss.

I'm super late but I use a book light almost exclusively to stitch. I have a stand and just clip it to the neck. Sometimes it casts a shadow but I also can clip it to my actual QSnap of I feel like it. I use two when I work on dark fabric, shining both from the front and the back.
[This is the one I use. ](luminolite bk-07 3000k warm led, easy for eyes, clip, car & travel, rechargeable slim 2.1 oz weight. perfect for bookworms book light for reading in bed, white https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077D8QXST/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_dVuaCbRDYE14N)
Edit: I also clip it to my QSnap when it's not on my stand and it doesn't weigh it down at all. Though I have to clip it to my actual snap and not when it's covered in a grime guard, it won't clip on that way.
This one.
No back light but honestly, I keep mine at zero unless it's night time, and then it's not hard to turn on a lamp. I would buy it at that price.
Buy a book light for $10 if it bothers you.
I have one of these that I use for tying and other things. Inexpensive, rechargeable, and it does the job. Bendy wires let you position it how you like and you don't have to worry about finding batteries when you need it. Very handy little lamp.

Since you’ve already gotten quite a few responses to all your questions, I’ll answer some of them. I only started cross stitching in March so I’m still kind of a beginner myself although it feels like I’ve stitched for ages!
“Where can you buy nicer hoops for framing completed projects?”
The brand Darice makes really nice hoops, imo. A search on Etsy for “darice embroidery hoops” returns quite a few results.
“What are the top 3 things every cross-stitcher should own?”
A hoop stand to hold your project while you stitch (I have this stand and love it: http://www.michaels.com/loops-and-threads-adjustable-craft-stand/10232941.html#start=6), a magnetic line minder to hold your pattern and help you keep track of the line of stitches you’re working on (https://www.hobbylobby.com/Yarn-Needle-Art/Cross-Stitch/Floss-Thread/Magnetic-Line-Minder/p/34733), and binder rings to keep the bobbins of floss for each project together (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074PHZK89/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_Ci7KBbKYXGMWC).
“Does anyone use a magnifying glass/light combo and if so, where would you purchase from?”
I have this light (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MRU9SP0?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf) clipped to the top of my hoop stand and I absolutely love it. It has 3 different light colours and 2 light intensities for each light colour. It doesn’t really get hot and having the different light colours allows me to adjust the light for the floss colours/Aida colour of my project or depending on the time of day I’m stitching. I don’t have a magnifying glass yet.
“Any other tips for someone who has done 2-3 counted cross stitch patterns but is looking to improve skill?”
LOOP START!! My mother taught me to stitch and that’s the first thing she taught me. I’m always amazed when I read on reddit about people learning about loop start for the first time because I can’t imagine starting my stitches any other way. It only works when you’re use an even number of floss strands for your project. So if you’re wanting to use 2 strands of floss for your project, you only actually pull 1 strand from your floss, fold it in half and thread both ends into the eye of your needle, come in up the corner of your first stitch - but don’t pull your floss all the way through! - and then put the needle down through the floss loop on the back. Voila! Your floss is secured to your project. Also make sure you’re having fun! It’s not worth it to keep stitching when you’re frustrated by a pattern or lose interest in a pattern. Put the project down for a little while if you’re frustrated with the pattern or start a new pattern or work on another project if you lose interest in a pattern. It’s absolutely imperative that you have fun/enjoy yourself when you stitch.

I know what you mean, I wish there was an option to lock the record key in off position sometimes ;-)
