Are you a reader? Do you have a favorite place to read? I love to snuggle up in bed and settle into my book. Where's your favorite reading place?

Hi! Yes I'm a reader, a bookworm from way back! I love to read everything everywhere anytime I have a few moments... I even read while walking to work... My favorite place to read? That's hard, but it would be a toss up between bed and outside on the patio while soaking up some vitamin D.

Over here sitting on the patio results in frost bite! LOL.

OOh Brr! Sorry! Guess the bed is the best place for you! But certainly better patio weather is coming your way soon?

Chocolate and me in bed is a disaster. I lie on it and it melts leaving a nasty mess! LOL.

The best place to read for me is my bed, second maybe nice couch, than maybe desk....it is so hard for me is read in the car or train. During the winter I stay in my bed a lot, so reading is my favorite.

I find that bed is warm, comfortable and I can spread out. So it's my best place too.

I think that my favorite place to read is in my bed at night. It is where I am the most comfortable with a book in hand and has become my nightly habit and routine. I do not care if it is four in the morning and I have to get up at six, I still feel best when I read a little before falling asleep.

Hello my friend p1kef1sh Ji, Well, I am crazy reader. Without raeding I never get sleep. I usually tread after mu dinner on the bed and on moving trains. This has been my habit ever since my child-hood. I read all kinds of literature/Novels except that I restrict my reading to News paper, I read only selected columns improving my way of living, what Govt. is supposed to do and what is opposition denmanding has never attaracted me. I read almost all Women-magzines and Knitting in particular. happy holi Thanks. May God bless You and have a great time.

You sound very disciplined in your reading. I find newspapers so depressing though.

Snuggled up in bed is the best place to read but anywhere will do as long as no-one tries to talk to me.

A certain person is allowed to interrupt my reading on Sunday evenings, he helps me relax.

Personally for me if I was to snuggle up in bed and try to read a good book I usually end up wanting to fall asleep. So for me most of the time, when I am in the mood to read, I usually will grab a good book and recline in my recliner. And then I try to put myself in the setting of the book imagining being there along with all the other characters and thinking about what I would do next.

I often read to help me to sleep. If I need to read for work then I tend to do it in an easy chair.

I love to read and my favourite place is the bed too. I love to snuggle up with my pillow and read. Of course, I don't get to do that often with distractions in the form of kids, husband, household help, just some stranger ringing the doorbell, phonecalls, etc!

lying down in bed or on the sofa, or reclining in the car while somebody else is driving!!!

Reading whilst you are driving can be hazardous. It's very easy to lose your place..

I read anywhere and everywhere. Can't say that I have a favorite place. I read at street corners, at train stations, on trains, at bus stops, on buses, in classrooms, in bathrooms, on a lake dock, on a lakeshore, on the front porch, on the back-porch, on a park bench, on the floor, on the couch, in bed, at my desk... I read everywhere. lol I really love reading in exotic environments like outside on a lake-dock, at a Renaissance festival, or on the deck of a cruise ship watching the ocean go by.

If you ever attend a Ren Faire on board a cruise liner you would hit sensory overload! LOL. Well done you for reading. So many don't these days.

Yep. I love to read, the only problem is that my favourite place to read is in my bed and mostly this gets done at night time. So, I might read a few pages and then start dozing off. Sometimes the book hits me in the face, my wife laughs at me, I wake up a bit and start reading again. Until the same thing happens again five or ten minutes later, then I put the book down and turn out the light. Yes, I love to read, but books take me a long time to get through reading like this!
@p1kef1sh (45681)

LOL. I find that sleeping at bedtime has the same effect. Subconsciously I think that I probably like it that way!

I hardly have time to read but if I do, it is usually on my bed while I am lying. And when I'm really sleepy from reading, I just put the book down and snuggle and fall asleep .

When the weather is nice my favorite place is my covered front deck. I have a patio set that includes a couch and the house is surrounded by trees. A gentle breeze, a warm summer evening, surrounded by my dogs, is perfection! I also read in bed every night. It helps me sleep.

I love to read in bed at night and it usually makes me fall asleep unless its one of those thrillers you just have to read until you get to the end . My indulgence would be a day in bed with a good book. I am rather boring don't you think. Cheers SUE

Not boring at all Sue. A day in bed appeals on so many levels!

I'm a bed-snuggler, too! I like to read in bed because I can just put the book down and settle in to sleep. If I read elsewhere I put it down, climb the stairs, turn back the covers, etc. and am wide awake by the time I settle in! I also like reading in bed because that's snuggle time for Gus and Cookie, my dogs. They crawl under the covers, one on each side of me. We snuggle during the daytime, of course, but nothing as relaxing as this when they know the day is done and they can quit paying attention to anything.

I love the just before sleep read. Althugh for me it's the Boss that's snuggled up against me.

hi pike oh I love to read and in bed all comfy snuggled up and reading . but my roomie is one who has to have lights out at ten party pooper. but yet she has on earphones and listens to her damned music most of the night. bah humbug. I used to read myself asleep before days of Gold crest lol. need a pricate room. lol.
@p1kef1sh (45681)

Does Gold Crest have private rooms Hatley. I hate the fact that when people get older we strip away their dignity by forcing them to share a room with a stranger. I administer some sheltered housing for the elderly who have low incomes. We give them one bedroom apartments all of which have lounge dining rooms, kitchens and bathrooms. They can have a car and come and go as they please.

I'm another bedtime reader, but unfortunately the lamp by my bed is really poor and I'm going to give myself dodgy eyes and a creased forehead if I don't watch out. I've had a rotten cold for the last few days and have been snuggled up in bed with my book a fair amount. In the daytime when I don't need the lap it's fine, so perhaps that is the answer! Sit in bed all day!

Hi. p1kef1sh. Yes, I am a reader. My favorite place to read is at home in my bedroom. Or at the park in the quiet gazebo. I enjoy for it to be so peaceful while I am reading my book.

My favorite place is the couch with its back against the window at our bedroom. I would sit there, with feet elevated on our bed's edge and a bit reclined and go on with my reading. The window gives the daylight, a chance to illumine my reading.
