I don't can't read books in short spurts, so I never bother to read on the bus, or while waiting for something that'll arrrive/happen in under five minutes.

But I've also found that I can't get much reading done around the house. The couch or the easy chair aren't conductive. But any book laid down at the kitchen table is liable to have a good twenty or thirty pages flipped through it.

The oddest thing now is that I seem to do the majority of my reading out at bars these days. Either in the afternoon or late at night when there is less of a population there. I'm wondering if maybe that in order to ignore the music and constant sound of glasses clinking, I'm forced to concentarte harder then I would if I was in a calmer location.

Seems to be working fine for me. Although a lot of my covers are sticky.

Where's your best place for reading?

My couch.

Anywhere, but I usually have to be lying down.

in a lounge chair by the swimming pool.

On the train. Unless there is an interesting conversation I can eavesdrop on, of course.

I currently don't have any favorite place. &nbsp However, as a child, there was one particular room in my Grandmother's house that I loved to read in. &nbsp It had its own air conditioner and a huge, comfy chair with matching ottoman. &nbsp I spent many a hot, summer day in that room, reading to the gentle, background hum of the AC unit. &nbsp Ahhh, those were the days!

A hot tub

in a wing-back chair with one or two legs draped over one arm and my head resting on a wing. so comfortable... so very comfortable...

I hammock is my favorite, but I often read on a lawn chair while on my patio.

Various places, but I usually read for an hour or two before going to sleep every night.

On BART provided some loudmouth isn’t yapping on a cel phone at the top of their lungs.

On the pot.

In bed if I can’t sleep.

at work in the middle of the night.

Lying in bed.

Sitting on Captain Porcelin.

In a bookstore - preferably a major chain like B&N or Borders - a good cup of coffee and a good book make for a very nice Sunday afternoon.

If it during the week, after work curled up on the couch with the TV on. (Remaining remnants of an almost recovered couch potato)

not my favorite, but about the only place I get any done anymore. my car while waiting for my laundry to be done at the laundramat

My favorite spot used to be either the Barnes & Noble in the Arboretum in Austin or the Barnes & Noble on the drag in Austin across from UT. Now that I live in Charlotte I haven't found a cool place.

If I lived in ca..it would have to be at the beach..but since I don't I just lay on my bed, with my fountain turned on.

On my couch, in bed before I go to sleep, at work in the break room, or in an easy chair in the living room with my feet propped up. As long as no one's talking to me I can read just about anywhere as long as nothing important is going on. I also like reading outside with the sun beaming down on me. As long as I have 15 or 20 minutes I can start to get into a book.

I commute to NYC via ferry, so I've usually got 50 minutes to kill each way. I manage about 100 pages a day.

I live in Hawaii and I don't like reading books at the beach. Too much sand and my hands are always wet or oily from sunscreen. Besides, I don't go to the beach to read. If I do bring reading material, though, it's usually sports magazines. I don't like bringing magazines like Maxim because I don't want to get crap all over them. I don't mind messing up my sports magazines, though.

I just plop down on my bed with my stereo beside me and listen to some music while I read.

On my bed.

In my bedroom. Usually on my chair or my bed. But sometimes I goes outside my room and read it in my porch.

Call me cliched, but I like to sit outdoors, against a tree and read (usually on the University of Saskatchewan campus or the riverbank near the Besborough Hotel). Or I sit in my living room and read (especially during thunderstorms!) until my cat begs for attention.
