When the kids were home, I went to the bedroom to read sometimes. But most of the time I get so lost in a book that the house could explode around me and I wouldn't notice. LOL
I'm the same way, Colleen. If I'm deep into a book I'm loving, I'm gone. But I do love the idea of a comfy-cozy chair to read in, but then I'd have to fight the cats for it. Sigh
Wish I could do that, but things seem to echo off the walls in that house, and I'd like to escape it most of the time. That's a bigger issue I guess. LOL
My favorite place to read is sitting at the kitchen table while someone else is cooking.
I can read almost any where.
and if the book is good, I 2 can get lost in the book. :)
by the way while we are on the line of books , found a new author to read, (to me any way)
Bruce Hennigan, if ya what to know more, I got it posted over at my jelspeaks blog. :)
I guess I read mostly waiting at doctor's appointments and kids' soccer games. But I'd like to know what it's like to curl up in front of a fire again now that the weather is changing. LOL
I read anywhere. I don't need to hide away, I'm one of those who can be in the midst of confusion and block it all out. They family hates it at times....but I can do that with books or TV or the internet or the kids or whoever I'm talking with, if I get into it, I can ignore everything else.
My baby girl is the same way.
Great about the Kindle BTW, they replaced mine for free when it started freezing up.
hugs,

Since I don't physically read books anymore, I listen to audiobooks. The best time and place for me to listen is at night when I can't sleep. I sit on my bed, earphones on, and listen while playing mindless computer games. Sometimes I knit while listening during the day but I often get so relaxed that I fall asleep. Since the battery on my iPod isn't that big I end up recharging it more if I knit than if I wait until nighttime to listen. Sound confusing? You should see it from this end!!! LOL
My daughter loves audiobooks. When I try to listen to them my mind wanders and I have no idea what happened. I was reading a "book" on the iPAD and was going along famously only to discover I didn't have the complete book. It was apparently a sample. *sigh* Where do I read? In bed at night generally. Sometimes, dare I say, in the bathroom, but hubby doesn't like to see the iPAD in there. LOL
Ruthie, I'd never make it with your system! But I love the concept. WK, my son destroyed my Kindle with water, and I was honest about it. It was damp when he came home from school and the screen looked like an Etch a Sketch. LOL
Sandie, your husband must have seen that Seinfeld. I say sneak that iPad wherever you get a moment's peace. There sure are a lot of iPads here. I went to a restaurant the other day where they send the orders in on them!
I love to either curl up by the fire to read, although that's no longer an option, since the hubs put his giant screen TV in front of the fireplace. It was that or it took up 1/4 of the room.
The other place is in a garden, preferable in a hammock. :D
I'd love to have a hammock! That cracks me up about the fireplace. Men have their priorities. LOL
how do sit in a hammock?
every time i tryed to get in one it thows me! :(
Jel, that takes the romance out of it. I'm sure I'd fall too!
