I usually sit on this small loveseat that is just the right size for my legs and feet--short legs and small feet--with a table next to me with all the stuff I need for a long read time.
Yet today I sat out on my small porch for about an hour near my small container garden.
Everything compact and just right for me.

My favourite place for now is my bed with my dog sleeping alongside me. It is very calming and I can concentrate on the text easily. I used to listen to an audiobook while doing chores or walking outside, but this time I don't have any on my TBR stack

After the next hour, my final official co-mod hour, I will go to bed to put my legs up the wall while I listen to Mrs. Caliban by Rachel Ingalls. I have had this on my tbr for a long time.
I have a reading room but I never read in it. Feels too lonely.
I read in the living room. I like seeing what my family is doing all the time.

I love to read while floating in the pool, but it is not quite time for that yet. I also like reading outside in my hammock, but today was rainy and cold so I was stuck inside. Right now I am reading in bed but I usually fall asleep so we will see.

Sometimes we will read in a special place for readathons or this readathon or for a certain section of the readathon. The..."My usual spot is on the couch in the lounge by the window with a cup of coffee on the ledge (or sometimes precariously balanced on the couch) and my dog next to me. When the weather is good, I love to sit outside under the tree (although I have to be wary of bird poop).
I usually read in my local pub and did so this time also for a short while. (Saturdays can be noisy) I also read on my balcony, it was wonderful in the sun.
On my sofa! And in bed for the last few pages. One the balcony would have been nice, but it was still to cold this time.
In bed, where I fell asleep reading, & in a nice hot bath, where I also fell asleep reading - didn't dunk my book, though :0)
