In honor of the Books Your Way picture contest, we thought we’d share 10 of our favorite places to read a book. Feel free to use this post to generate ideas for the contest!
Comfortable Places to Read a Book
In Bed
We love to read in bed—you can stay warm, cozy, and comfortable under the blankets, curled up with a good book. This is especially great during the winter.
The Couch
Reading on the couch is great, as long as you have a comfortable couch. If not, maybe it’s time to retreat to your comfortable bed.
The Library
A library is always a wonderful place to read. There are chairs, it’s quiet, and, best of all, if you finish a book, you can immediately grab another one!
Sunny Places to Read a Book
In the Sun
There’s nothing like basking in the sun while reading. Just don’t forget the sunscreen.
A Hammock
If you don’t want to lie in the grass, a hammock is an alternative. You’re still in the sun, but you’re comfortable and can even swing gently.
The Swing
Speaking of swinging, a swing is another of our favorite places to read a book.
The Beach
A beach is a great place to read. Warm sand, cool breeze, soothing water . . .
“I-Have-a-Busy-Life” Places to Read a Book
Hanging Around
We just can’t stop reading—even if we need to get somewhere. That’s what multitasking is for, right?
The Treadmill
Who says reading can’t be a physically healthy activity? We love to read while exercising.
The Floor
On that same note, stretching while reading feels great.

I have family that live in other states. Travel delays happen. I always have a book, and now my Kindle app to read. I have been in a couple of traffic jams where I have been delayed for 2 hours or more. You sit there with nowhere to go and nothing to do. Unless you have something to read. I make good use of that time and don’t get angry or anxious. I read and relax.
I prefer reading in bed late at night. However, I carry my Kindle everywhere I go. Waiting to see the doctor, riding the ferry, traveling by train are great places to read.
My fave reading place is a “root chair,” by the Merced River in Yosemite Valley. Right next to an employee “tent camp” called the Ozone, which doesn’t exist anymore, but still remember my fave root chair, where it was. All the tourists (who paid me) didn’t know it existed, and could be alone.
That “root chair” was perfect, had a lovely shot east to Half Dome, a few feet up from the Merced (“Mercy,” in Spanish, something the settlers showed little of, to the Ahwahnechee Indians who were in Yosemite Valley before they were).
Is south of Yosemite Village, west Valley. Not far from the “swinging bridge,” and quite close to the pedestrian path, but blissfully not near any road.
My favorite place to read is in my recliner. But I also read in check-out lines, waiting for appointments, etc. In summary, I read everywhere I can!
My tablet is the first thing that goes into my bag. Read anytime , everywhere
I love to read on my phone while waiting in line at the post office, waiting for kids at school, waiting for a program to start. In the middle of the night when I can’t sleep. Anywhere. Thanks for all the great books!
I love to read anywhere and everywhere I go…..I take a book or two with me everywhere I go…. It helps me relax when I’m on the road and not driving
I enjoy reading anywhere and everywhere right now I’m in the I C U with my brother
I like to read anywhere I can but my favorite is when I am laying in bed.
