Show Us Where You Read
Where do you read? Do you sprawl out in the park? Or do you have a cozy coffee shop with the perfect you-sized reading nook? Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, we want to see the view. We promise we won't get jealous—well, not too jealous—if you're currently reading on vacation, flipping pages on a balmy, sun-soaked beach. (Just take us with you next time, okay?

I usually tend to read in class a lot and at home. If it's warm outside, I'd read out there:)

I read in class, when my friends are talking about things that I don't care and at home :) usually when it's late.
I usually read on the couch or in my husband's chair after he goes to bed, or in bed or on the deck, or in the car (when I am not driving of course. :-)) I pretty much read anywhere and everywhere. :-)
I usually read in the living room especially in the cold months in Michigan. But in the warmer weather it is outside relaxing in the sun. I lose track of time I get to involved in a good book.
In a box, with a fox. In a house, with a mouse. I will read books here and there. I will read them ANYWHERE!
In my bedroom with coffee and a good book usually not unless it is nice outside some times i'll read at the park or go to the library depending on my mood, oh yes in the car(no, I don't drive), in a hotel room for over nights or couple nights. It just all depends where i'm located.
In the train when I go to or come from work/classes. When it's sunny I like to go to the balcony and read there. That's also my spot whenever I need to read more digital documents/news (I still prefer paper books). Bed is also nice especially because you can sit in different positions :)
In bed, before I go to sleep. On car trips. On the couch when my 19 month old is napping. While I eat supper or lunch.
I read in my room at my desk, on my bed, outside on the porch, outside on a swing, and in the car a lot. (I don't drive! :D)
I read in my room, on the sofa, downstairs, the occasional outside or somewhere away from town, and at school whenever possible.
Wherever. I read in my room, by the lake, on the deck, on the floor, walking (depending on the intensity of the book and the readability). Also in bed.
I've got a long bus trip to and from uni, so I usually read there. I also some times sneak in an hour or so in bed before I go to sleep
I have normal answers, like on my sofa or in my bed. But I also really, really like reading in my bathtub. Also, while travelling. I just get annoyed extremely easily in a crowd, so yeah.
At my computer, in my car while I wait (while parked) or when I'm a passenger, in my comfy recliner, or where ever I have a chance.
I usually read at home in bed but now I'm reading more at the library. There are less distractions and I can always find something else to read that I don't own. I'm pretty sure the guards and the check out people are sick of seeing me there though lol. I would love to read at a beautiful park though.

At the foot of my bed I have three bookshelves that form a circle, covering the opening entrance (you enter by sliding by the end of my bed) is a curtain that wraps around the entirety of the "Book Room" I've created. Inside I have a seat that I can read and and be surrounded by books. I also have a small iHome hooked up in the room (well room inside a room) so I can have light music playing while I read.
I read everywhere... even walking... but mostly on my resting chair in my bedroom ... or listening everywhere if audio...
God,I admit, I'm always envious and sad when I see or hear of everyone's awesome reading spots. "Someday maybe" is always what I say that things will change for something I wish for. Agoraphobic here so at home in my room and any pics wouldn't matter. Nothing special about it except the books because someday maybe.....I'll have somebody offline who cares to hear about my book experiences. So, beautiful reading scenery.......Someday Maybe.......Another awesome blog post. I'm sure you're going to get some amazing pictures:)
On the bus, train, car, plane...anything that moves. For some reason I'm able to focus better in vehicles.
I have my spot (Shelden style) on the couch. During the daytime, I've got nice indirect lighting from a window behind me. At night, I've got my favorite lamp. I also put some light indie music on Pandora on the Roku, set the volume low and drink some white tea. Seriously, I have a ritual. Reading is the single most relaxing thing in the world. :-)
Every I can and some places I shouldn't! I always have a book - either hard copy, Kindle or Kindle phone app....so always able to turn pages!
That's a beautiful place to read! I read on my couch, sometimes me and my friends read outside. We read under a tree where it is very peaceful.
I read during my work commute, or at home in my room. In the summer I'll try to find time to read outdoors, usually a nearby park or my backyard.

Usually at a café...this is an old photo ... I think I've been through a couple of Kindles since this one, but I still go to this café. The food is OK (nothing special) but the coffee is amazing. Australia has pretty much the best coffee in the world and because I travel a lot I drop into a lot of different cafés and this is amongst the best coffee I've ever had.
