Favourite way to read a book!!

Concannon7

Sitting up in bed or lying on my stomach in bed. I also like to read lying down on the couch, but rarely ever do that as I'm always interupted.

Eww, really, really not good for you. Presses the intestines downwards.

On a really comfortable chair or on the bus... I read it bed every night but it's not my favourite.

In bed or in a big comfy chair by the fire all curled up. I will read anywher but background noise 'wakes me up' and I can't get lost in the book.

I have to confess that I do my best reading in the crapper too. Why is this not good for you - It can't be that much different to the sitting position in any chair.

Except there's a big hole (under your own).

I've come home locked a few times, and started reading, i read the first two hundred pages of War and Peace, where the introduction to all the characters is done, I picked up where i left off the next morning and hadn't a clue what the hell was going on, so i had to start again, also reading made my hangover substantially worse. So no beer.

I've read after drinking a few times and its actually quite nice! You get alot more from it at the time. But, yes, the downside is that i can never remember what i read or at least any significant details so I'm back to square 1 again. but isn't that the nature of being tipsy?

god damn this thread...

here i am sittin with a nice couple of beers, in preparation for going out, and now i want to read. sigh. Generally find on my sofa bed sitting up is pretty cool, that or on the floor back against the sofa. Cant read on my stomach, though i used to as a kid. Dont have to travel far ever so dont really read like that..

Before going to sleep and on me side
Tiredness = falling asleep = book falling (i have a couch under my bed) = wrecked book on the floor = me pissed off with falling asleep next morning :mad:

That's why good books totally deprive me of sleep, I try to stay awake aslong as I can but you can't stop the inevitable.

i like to read it cover to cover.. Back to front!

I tend to be able to read anytime anywhere. I would probably do most of my reading at night though as I tend to stay up pretty late 4/5 am usually. I also speed read so I can finish a book in a day if I want so Ill usually keep going if its late and there are a 100 or more page left.

In bed, falling asleep in the middle of a sentence. I'm a slow reader at night as a result. Mornings very good for study, I find. Nothing nicer than munching egg on toast and swigging coffee while sitting up in bed reading.

In bed when the house is quiet or in the bath with a nice glass of wine

in my bed, on my side, or in the armchair beside the sofa in the downstairs sitting room, or in the conservatory on a rainy day with no bright sunlight. a glass of lemonade and silence. music interrupts my involvement. things like clocks ticking or the wind are good though sometimes.
