I always read in bed. Most of the time I'm reading more than I am sleeping. I do have to be particular though because my dreams are often affected by whatever I was reading before I went to sleep. This made for some very interesting dreams when I was reading The Hunger Games trilogy.

i love reading in bed. It is actually my favorite place to read because it is where I am most comfortable. I am able to lay down and sit up at my leisure and take a nap when i am done reading if I would like.

I love reading in bed! I feel like we should have a holiday devoted to reading in bed. :) Anyone agree?

Reading in bed is my favorite way to unwind from a long day, and it gives me an excuse to read for fun instead of just for classes.

I have always read in bed and I always will. My parents made the mistake of getting me a booklight when I was about six, and so began a lifetime of reading under the covers when everyone just wants me to go the heck to sleep. ^^ Especially since I'm in a dorm now my bed is simply the comfiest place to be. Why wouldn't I read there? Plus it's oddly comforting to have a book in bed with me whilst I sleep.

Reading in bed is awesome, but sometimes I'm afraid to read horror stories or even odd sci fi books before I sleep, because with sleep comes dreams.

I do like to read in bed but it whether I do it or not depends on how tired I am and what kind of mood I am in. In all honesty if my man is feeling "in the mood" that book gets set aside any day. But if we're just chilling out, I like to pick up my book and read. However before I got in this relationship I was always reading in bed and would read myself right to sleep (after many hours) or there were times where I wouldn't even make it to sleep because I was up all night reading. It is very hard to put a good book done for something like sleep! So it's been a couple years since that has happened. Yes it is my relationships fault but I'm ok with the trade off!

Thirded (is that really a word?)

My ideal get away weekend would be hideing away in a hotel room and reading. Room service would have to be included. Oh and by the way 15 yr old and husband not included.

I always read in bed. It's my most comfortable place in the world. It's like, my refuge.
