The Best Places to Read a Book
On the sofa
Yes, on the sofa is a nice place to read. It’s comfy. You can have a cup of tea next to you on the coffee table (not on the arm – you might knock it off accidentally) and maybe a couple of biscuits to dunk. BUT, the sitting room isn’t always a haven of calm. A husband could walk through at any time searching for lost car keys. A child may wander in, tap you on the shoulder and request that you provide him with more food. There are always way too many distractions.
In the bath
Good call. If the door has a lock, you know you’ll be totally undisturbed. HOWEVER, there’s only a finite time you can spend in there before your skin goes wrinkly and the water begins to turn from volcano hot to lukewarm. Plus, there’s the added danger that your book could fall in, or, heaven forbid, your ereader. Can you get electrocuted from an ereader in the bath? I don’t think so, but you wouldn’t want to test that theory.
On holiday
Possibly a favourite choice. Sunshine, sun loungers, hours of time to relax, no work distractions, Holidays are the perfect time to catch up with those stacks of novels you’ve been dying to read, but haven’t had the chance to, due to the fact you’ve been searching for lost keys, feeding kids and recovering from electrical injuries you sustained in the bath. Yes, holidays seem to be the perfect place to read, UNLESS you’re like me and only take one holiday every millennium.
Public Transport
Hmmm, I guess if you commute, this could be a good option. As long as you don’t live in Britain, where you can never get a seat on the train/bus due to massive over-crowding, unless you re-mortgage your house to travel first class, in which case you get virtually a whole carriage to yourself and a four poster bed, champagne, truffles and your own butler. I’m exaggerating. BUT what happens if you get to a really good bit of the book and you reach your stop? Do you get up, mid-scene, destroying the atmosphere of the story, or do you ignore your stop, travel to the end of the line, to Where-the heck-am-I-ville, and get a taxi home? This type of scenario has actually happened in real life.
In bed
This gets my vote. The kids have been fed and are sound asleep. The husband’s car keys are on the hook downstairs. You’ve had a nice soaky bubble bath without mishap. The holiday to Costa del Gorgeous is booked. So now you can get into your pjs, snuggle under the duvet and turn to page one. Bliss.
So where’s your fave place to read? One of the above, or somewhere totally different?
