Favorite Reading Spots 3

Welcome to the third installment of Favorite Reading Spots. None of the respondents this time around sent me images to go with their favorite reading spots, so you can enjoy the picture of my reading spot (complete with ghost pillow) while you read about theirs. If you would like to tell me about your Favorite Reading Spot, feel free to email me or comment here.

Wonder of W for Wonder maintains that she doesn’t have a favorite reading spot (but she loves my little ghost.) She hopes to find someplace really comfortable soon. (I wish you the most comfortable chair in the Universe, Wonder!)

Gillian from Food History says “I can’t give you a picture unless you want one of a random street. My quiet time for reading is often on my way to or from somewhere, on a bus or walking. I could give you a picture of my handbag, in which usually resides a book.” (Well, Gillian, you know what they say. The road to enlightenment is long, so bring snacks and reading material. I think you’re all set.)

Allison from Find Religion describes her favorite reading spot, thusly: “My favorite reading spot is actually on an airplane, as weird as that sounds! I typically have little time to read, and when I’m on an airplane there’s not much else I CAN do, so I can indulge in a good book without feeling guilty like I’m wasting time. Plus, it’s usually fairly quiet, my cell phone is turned off, and they provide a reading snack!” (Great choice, Allison. Books are always a better bet than the in flight magazine.)

Worldly Chatter’s Samantha has two favorite reading spots. “One is right on my couch curled up with the gobs of pillows on it and the other is near my home. There is a center piece near the center of town with plants, benches and such. It over looks an ice cream parlor and the center. I love it. In all the hustle and bustle I am invisible and read on one of the benches enjoying the weather!” (Obviously I agree on the couch. Your other spot reminds me of a lovely park that they have in Edinburgh. I could sit there and read forever. Thanks for your submission!)

Well, that’s it for this time. Keep reading!

    Now I need a ghost pillow to help me read. It’s so cute!

  2. Elisa Says:

    I actually have 2. One of them looks like a big Marshmellow Peep Ghost.

    (I could only find the sweets, not the actual pillow, sorry)

    Oooh!

    I didn’t know about this.

    1) I love reading your fav spot too. Tell ghostiepoo that I said hello.

    2) Let me know next time and I’ll send you a pic of my spot.

  4. Gillian Says:

    I’m not buying one - won’t fit in my handbag. Also, can you imagine me walking along the street, book in one hand, ghost under arm, ghost scuttling off to hide in the gutter every time I turn a page or press a button for the traffic light?
