The Green Jell-O Book Club: A Goodreads Group about Fiction Written by LDS Authors discussion

I have a favored spot on the couch where I can look out the window occasionally to rest my eyes. But I can read absolutely anywhere. When I'm camping, I'll read late into the night inside my sleeping bag so I don't wake up those who are sleeping.

I also like my couch. I always prop up my feet and have a Diet Coke within reach.

Food and drink goes nicely with books

For sure! Sometimes I like to listen to classical music while reading. Beethoven and Mozart also go great with books!

I have a cute little book nook with a cozy chair, but I always end up reading on my couch - usually with lots of action going on around me! I can read anywhere, too!

I read anywhere and almost everywhere. My favorite places are my recliner, patio lounge chair, rocking chair, porch swing, at the kitchen table (if I'm eating alone), or wherever I happen to be.

Good thing we can tune out the action around us when we get into a story. OTherwise, I'd probably only get through 2 books a year.

Oooo, I'm jealous of the porch swing. That sounds heavenly.

My favorite spot is sprawled out on a couch. Which couch depends on time of day, season, and location of the kiddos. But I'll read just about anywhere.

Good point. At certain times of the day, MY couch can get drenched in blinding sunbeams. Then I read elsewhere.

My ideal reading spot would be somewhere comfy and secluded with lots of light! I don't have anything like that where I am currently living, but it is definitely a must-have for a dream house!

I can also read almost anywhere (my friends and family make fun of how I tune out with or without a book) but I prefer a couch that I can lay down sideways on, curled up in a blanket, with the room otherwise silent or very close and just-brighter-than-moderate lighting. I've thought about this quite a bit :D

My bed because the light is good. I would like a proper comfy chair, though.

Sounds lovely, Silver! There's nothing wrong with being very particular about your ideal reading spot. :)

Audrey, I hope you get a super comfy chair someday!
