I like to relax and read a good book or magazine in a hot bubble bath. How about you, where do you like to curl up and read a book?
My favorite place is poolside after work or on a weekend late afternoon. I usually read on my Kindle.
My favorite places to read are at the beach and at the balcony of my house.
At home? warm weather, outside in a hammock far from the telephone winters, curled up under a fleece blanket.
Down by the river. I like the sound of running water. Or a coffee shop is nice too.
The bath does it for me, and other times I read mags in the bathroom, or else on the balcony if the weather allows it, which is not too often. The Kindle is good for snatching a read, and I love reading books just about anywhere. I love books and magazines on holidays.
On my bed in the afternoon and surrounded by books. Feels so nice to have a book open while I relax next to my friends ^_^.
I hate magazines, and the funny thing is, I took a job at a grocery store a few years ago and am now forced to look at them every day... Same garbage on the front of every one. And if I work the midnight shift and actually thumb thru them, they all have the exact same stories and pics. They rip ppl apart, whether the info is true or not. Take the latest on Kim Kardashian (sp?). She is pregnant, and they are trying to humiliate her for GAINING WEIGHT! Now I'm not a fan, I don't know anything about her, but what kind of sickos mock a pregnant woman for gaining weight? Yet it's on the cover of every magazine. Yuck.
locked up In my bedroom, I don't want any disturbance while i am reading. I can never read in public places.

Although computers have opened up immediate, vast and rich worlds of information that I love, I still love to read books as well. These are friends that I can hold in my hand; I love the scent of books, and the turning of the soft pages. I also think that books may have other benefits...
