It's Wednesday, which means that Catrina over at Callapidder Days is asking another Fall into Reading Question.
Where do you love to read? Do you have a favorite chair, a favorite room, a favorite place…somewhere that inspires you to put everything else aside and pick up a book?
Honestly, the answer to that question is yes. I will read anywhere and everywhere. It comes from a childhood spent using books to get me through boring shopping trips. (Let's face it, every shopping trip outside a toy store is boring when you're a kid, even if it's for you.)
Based on where I read the most now, I would say my favorite places to read are:
1) My car. Don't panic. I don't read while driving (although I have been tempted upon occasion). But I will go out to my car and read on my lunch hour. Yes, I often take a nap as well, but that's a favorite spot, and when it is too hot or cold to do that, I'm disappointed.
2) My bed. I always snuggle in at night and read before turning out the light. Unlike some people, I find reading relaxes me enough to put me to sleep. Whenever I have a chance to read at home, this is my default location since my roommates are usually out and about other places in the condo.
Given a choice, I will also read in the easy chair in the living room, although that's less common.
As I said, I will read anywhere and everywhere I can. As long as I can support at least some of my weight, I will get lost in a book. Yes, I have read standing up before.

Since you mentioned that you read standing up, I would think that therefore your *most* favorite place to read would be "While waiting in line at Disneyland."
That would be rude to the people I am at Disneyland with.
But maybe I should try it sometime.
