Where do you like to read books? Do you read in fireplaces, "on the run", at work or some other locale?

I will read anywhere, but in a moving car. I read while standing at the stove cooking even. I've always got a book in my hands.

Oh my goodness. It's so wonderful to read this dalelynn. I thought I was the only one who read while cooking. It's not at all unusually for me to be reading while waiting for something to boil or finish.

I read mainly at home, when trying to relax, my favorite place it`s in my bed or in the sofa, reading in bathtub when taking a hotbath is also one of my favorites time to read. Outside my house sometimes i like to read in the bookstore or on the train, when on route to work.

One of the best places to read is while commuting. You can black out the entire tedious commute, including your own reactions to commuting. In the morning, you can be out of the "another day" syndrome, and on the way home you can avoid the "wondering why you put yourself through that every day" complex. Er... just one thing.... "in fireplaces"? Wouldn't that scorch the books?

Anywhere.. except in the vehicle... i cannot read while in the car etc... my head will start to feel dizzy. Anywhere else, i don't mind as long as i can read. :)

I like to read in bed before I go to sleep. It is a habit I have been in for a few years. At one time I would read anywhere and always used to read on the bus or train going to work. I find though that I am so busy now during the day that any time I'm on a bus I use that time to think, as it is the only time I'm not actually doing anything. So when I go to bed it is the one time I get to really settle down to read, I'm seperated or I probably wouldn't have tht time either!

I read anywhere, but especially like to be curled up in a big chair or stretched out on the bed. And in the bathtub--it's real relaxing to be in a hot bath full of herbs/oils etc and a good book. On a sunny day, I love to read outside or on the beach if I can make it there. As for cooking, when I'm in the kitchen I don my headphones and listen to audiobooks. There is no room on my counters to put a book, and I'm sure I would mess up whatever I was making if I tried to read and cook. Listening I can handle. I also listen to audiobooks when cleaning, yardwork, painting, etc--makes the chores go by much faster!

I usually read on bed, where I can roll around while reading. hahaha. Sometimes I read in the bookstore called Powerbooks they have couches inside the store where people can read some of the books they have.

I like to read anywhere really. Reading relaxes me and if I'm in a stressful place it helps.

I read everywhere I go to when it becomes boring. Sometimes when the teacher's getting boring, i just read. Or sometimes when I just couldn't put down the book coz it's interesting, i read while i'm walking. Hehehe. How about you?
