I'm guessing that in bed will be high up on the list here, but where else do you like reading? Curled up on the sofa? In the bath? On the toilet?
My personal favorite is in bed if I'm at home, or if I'm at work, I leave the office on a lunchtime and sit in a secluded spot round the side of our building that's private, sheltered from rain and most of the wind. It's great atmosphere on a rainy day or a windy day if you are reading the right kind of book, plus it means you can't be disturbed!
The one place I can't read is on my sofa at home. My xbox is right in front of me, and I'm more likely to go for the instant entertainment in that situation. How about you guys?

I like to read on the living room sofa after everyone else goes to bed. I lose track of time and end up going to bed much later than I should, but I love to read when the house is quiet.

Hey there. I enjoy to reading, If its a beautiful sunny day, I like to read out on the terrace over looking my gardens where all I can hear is the tui's in the neighbors tree singing. I also like to read in quiet areas, with no distractions, like unexpected visitors...

I like reading in bed some of the time, but my other favorite place to read is in my pappasan chair, which is like a big "nest." I can just curl up into the chair and be very comfortable while I read. The only problem is that my pappasan is in the living room, and if the TV is on, I won't read at all.

I like to read on my back porch where I probably won't be disturbed and can look out at the beautiful of the mountains. I also like to read when I am anywhere waiting. It passes the time more quickly. I love the outdoors, though, and love to sit outside. There I can read and write. I seem to connect with nature and whatever I am reading or writing seems to come more alive for me. I hope to have my porches screened in in the near future and then I can even sit outside during a gentle rain and read or write. Ever since I was about three, I would either sit outside or near an open window and read. This is my personality when it comes to reading and writing.
