How do you guys like to read for pleasure? I love to read lying down on my back. I would only sit on a chair if it is for a serious reading, like a boring academic books or the broad newspaper.. I was told that it was not a good posture to be in..but I just love it.. I can spend hours rolling around..lol..

On my bed with several pillows and the dog.
On the sofa - which reclines. No wonder I read so much. It's decadently comfortable!
Usually in bed, half sitting half laying on my side. Only problem is I get so comfortable I fall asleep easily. I can't read when I'm flat on my back holding a book or Kindle over my face. I occasionally read when I'm sitting on my sofa but it's less comfortable. I've never read in the bath, to me that would feel weird.
Lying on the sofa, either on my back or on my side. Or in the bath.
Why do I always fear the worst when I see the words position and pleasure mentioned in the same sentence, on this forum? :)

On a tropical beach, nekkid.
Doggy - you can rest the Kama Sutra on the woman's back.... Erm, I misunderstood the question didn't I?

Hmmmm after Darren's comment I just want to make it clear that when I mentioned the dog it had nothing to do with a sex manual.

Your slow spiral to a life of sin and debauchery will be chronicled on this forum and preserved as a warning to others. Traveller, do not pass by unheeding; this sad tale could so easily be yours.
Sober readers will read your tale and despair, before switching off their machine with an ill-repressed shudder. They will sit staring at a darkened screen long into the night, as they silently bewail their own fate.
The rest will merely pass through in transports of hedonistic pleasure, blind and deaf to anything save their own frantic cravings.
Note that the above is actually a drabble coming in at exactly 100 words :-)
Impressive Jim!I'm even more impressed by Darren actually reading the manual!

well looked at the pictures anyway
I sit on the chaise sofa in the sunroom with my feet up. I tend to have a jar of fruit pastilles and a tin of liquorice allsorts within easy reach and there must be absolute silence.When Holly sees me collect my Kindle from the bedroom she automatically makes herself comfy in my space as she knows exactly where I'm going:@)
Ha should have worded my question carefully! Lol..
Fiction - in bed as I invariably fall asleep.Newspapers - on the couch while eating my breakfast or lunch, or on the veranda.
Can't read anything for pleasure on the computer because I'm in 'work mode' and I want to edit everything!
If I'm reading dramatic poetry like the charge of the light brigade, I prefer to stand and read aloud...on my own of course :)

Actually, I caught the movie on TV (in 3D)
Mmmm greasy 3D karma sutra sandwichmmmmmmmm
Interesting that no one has mentioned reading while on the bog.
Obviously I (we all?) do that, but it's not my #1 choice. A bit too draughty ;P

Well what about the one you are speaking out of?

One did not say completely lacking.
One has got one's head up one's orifice!

Now that sounds like my fave place - actually managed a few lovely peaceful afternoons, feet up, in the conservatory, gently snoring with the kindle on my lap
