How to practice reading as a begginer?
I'm sure you could manage with https://foosoft.net/projects/yomichan/ - it's a browser extension that you can install dictionaries onto to get instant look ups (I would recommend).
No, textbooks are only one way of learning Japanese (and a pretty slow one at that). Many people have learned Japanese by just learning vocab with anki and reading through a grammar guide like Sakubi or Tae Kim's. Once they've done that, they start reading native material, maybe with the help of Yomichan to help them look up things more easily.

Manga for practicing reading comprehension.
Just read whatever you're most interested in so that you have motivation to keep reading despite having to look up so many words. Use digital versions so that you can use tools like mokuro and yomichan to easily look up unknown words.

Thoughts on buying a kindle to get more reading done in Japanese?
If you're going to be reading on a computer anyway, you can just use https://ttu-ebook.web.app/ to read epub files and use Yomichan for on-the-fly lookups. I just convert my Kindle purchases to .epub and read on ttu.

Are there any text hookers for Trails in the Sky?
I don’t know if there’s exactly what you’re looking for, but a good alternative, slightly more cumbersome option could be capture2text plus yomichan.

Yomichad - Japanese pop-up dictionary for qutebrowser
I really love qutebrowser, but what initially kept me from using it as my main browser was the lack of a Japanese pop-up dictionary userscript in the vein of yomichan, 10ten or rikaikun. That's why I wrote my own one, called yomichad. If you are interested, you can find more information in the repository. I hope it will be of help to others as well!
