Do you have a special reading spot, or do you read anywhere you can? Where do you like to read?
Julie:
I have a spot specifically designated for reading. It is a recliner in my library. But I haven’t once read in there. WHY? Well I haven’t quite gotten into a routine in this new house yet since we’re still transitioning and making changes here and there, so I simply haven’t had time to sit down and read for long periods of time. So for the time being, I read anywhere I can. Lately it has been in the car on my commute on audio books, or at lunch at work on ebooks on the computer. But I do prefer to read on a couch or recliner because I can get comfortable and not quite be sitting up and not quite be laying down. Perfect reading angles.
Rose:
My favorite reading spot comfort wise is the sofa in my library. It is the perfect size for me and oh so comfy. However, like Julie, I rarely get to read in the actual room I have designated for just that. Instead, I read mostly on my ipad mini at work on my lunch break, audio books while I am working, and in bed at night before I fall asleep. One of my other favorite reading spots is in the bathtub beacuse it is one of the only places where I can be and not get intruded upon, but here lately I have been so tired that I fall asleep in the tub!!! This is NOT cool because not only do I not get any reading done, but I almost dropped my kindle in the water last night. NOT okay!!!!
What about you? Where do you get most of your reading done????
I’m definitely a read anywhere kind of person.

Tina, I read anywhere as well.. in line at the grocery store or in line at the cafe at work, or in the truck while the boyfriend drives us somewhere. I used to get car sick, but I read so much in the car now, that it no longer bothers me.
Julie, I have a recliner in my library too that doesn’t get sat in often. 😉 And Rose, I couldn’t read in the tub – I would absolutely drop my book or ereader in the water! 😉 I read pretty much anywhere I can but my most favorite spot is in an Adirondack chair outside under the trees. Of course, I can only do that during warm weather months. 🙂

reading outside is nice, but not with an ereader. The sun interferes. Go Figure.
But your Kindle is e-ink right? So there’s no glare. I like reading outside with mine.
I have this wonderful paperwhite kindle, and yet I find myself carrying my ipad mini around every where while my paperwhite sits neglected.
Hehe that’s cute. If I want to read outside I have to do it during the colder months. Cause Texas summers are not comfortable reading environments lol.
But Texas summertime outdoor reading is never a lonely event… you have tons of bugs and mosquitos and other misc. biting stinging incects that keep you company while you read! FUN!
Bedbedbed. I love to read in bed at ALL TIMES OF THE DAY. The bath is probably my second favorite place. 🙂

Yes! The bath is a favorite for sure.
I miss reading in bed. But, I think the bed makes it hard to stay upright just enough to be comfortable without falling asleep lately lol
Terri, I do this, too, but I am constantly falling asleep and never remembering to mark my spot. I have also dropped my heavy hardback on my face while reading in bed. People do not tend to think of reading as dangerous, but after having 4 pounds of book knock you right in the face, tell me again reading is not an extreme past time!
Oh, I fall asleep reading all the time! I only know because my husband tells me in the morning because if I fall asleep holding a physical book he usually has problems locating my bookmark. Usually because I rolled over on it.

ahhhh your DH looks for your book mark for you before putting the book away? that is sooooo sweet of him.
I read in bed, like the lazy bum that I am 😉 Preferably with my fluffy orange cat on my feet, and a diet mountain dew nearby. ‘Cause that’s how I roll, LOL.
haha Jessica, I like your style…er well except for the diet Mountain Dew bit.
Reading snuggled up to a pet is awesome 🙂
unless the pet is incessantly licking the book’s pages… Maddox!
Right now I’m listening to audiobooks on my short drive to work. I do most of my reading right before bed every night so my favorite spot to read is in bed.

Have you ever dropped an eReader or a hardback on your face? Yea you won’t love reading in bed as much after a while of that lol
