Book Hop!

Book Blogger Hop


It's Blog hop time again-something I always look forward to on Fridays. This blog hop is brought to you by Crazy for Books-thanks Jennifer for such a great meme!

This week's question is: "Where is your favorite place to read?"

I actually have a couple of favorite places. My absolute favorite is in my sun room. My apartment has a little room with windows on three sides. I keep my bookshelves there and have some IKEA chairs, some end tables and a stereo. It is my happy place to relax with a mug of tea and read away.

I also love to read in bed. It is a nightly ritual for me to take in a few pages every night before I head off to sleep. But I have to be careful with what I read here-if it is scary or really sad it will keep me up shaking or bawling!

So how about you? Where is your book reading happy place?

Happy Friday! I usually read in bed in the evenings. Love to stretch out with a bunch of pillows and get comfortable.

I have to read a little before I go to sleep as well - most of the time i have to force myself to put the book down and actually go to sleep lol

Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier!

Your sun room sounds amazing and a half! Seriously, I'm completely jealous. I was supposed to have a library in my new house but the shelves haven't been built yet and my husbands stuff is slowly creeping into this room.

I read on my chaise lounge, stretched out and comfy with a soft blanket. Happy reading! Come and visit me at www.mandysescape.blogspot.com

Hi, thanks for stopping by my blog! I'm following back for sure XD

I know what you mean about reading scary things at night, I always have to listen to something happy or watch glee afterwards otherwise I'm likely to have nightmares. Oh, the perils of an overactive imagination lol.

Have a great weekend!
