It's perfect for both reading and writing. I shall write until my brain fries, and then read for some relaxation :)
Hopefully you will get our rain Leonie. We really don't need any more. It just keeps falling - our lawn looks like a meadow and the washing is piling up! Which is fine because I can keep reading:)

Add to that the recent fires, and it's been a tough summer for them.
