I read in bed to get myself to sleep. :) [g_aileen09]
Yeah, reading in bed helps me to sleep too, actually reading makes me sleepy anytime. I can be sitting up in the living room and reading, and pretty soon I'll be asleep..lol. [walijo2008]
I love reading! wub It's one of my favourite pasttime altogether and well it was cultivated from young. It is also a great way to past time when there is absolutely nothing else to do at home or on the bus. =D From young, I have loved reading all sorts of books, from romance to horror to thriller to real life fiction, so long as the plot is interesting. Hehe. Currently I am hooked onto Rachel Lee, John Lutz and Bentley Little as I love the way they put their plot together and string the entire plot to something that is riveting. lol I am proud to confess that once I start reading their books, I won't stop until the very last page! Well, I do read in bed. It's a bad habit but I don't care as it is the only place that I can read comfortably and it gives me the peace and quiet that I need for reading. Usually, I would start my books once I get ready for bed (sleeping) and read till I fall asleep (which is not most of the time lol). I would lie down in bed in the sleeping position and start reading while lying on my side. It's really a bad habit as it is bad for my eyes. But as every 'bookworm', who cares? Lol. How about you? Well, here I wish you happy reading and happy mylotting too!! [angelia286]
Sitting upright straight on the bed just to read is not a really comfortable position to be in, isn't it? cry Lol, that kind of takes the fun out of reading because of the uncomfortableness. I do agree with you that reading in bed is not a good habit to have as it kind of spoils our eyesight and we are forcing our eyes to work harder, and in the process corroding our eyesight. It's no wonder the majority of Asians ends up buying spectacles! Hehe, nowadays, I have changed my position to be reading on the floor. Makes one wonder, is there any difference to that? Lol! [angelia286]
I read on bed a lot despite advice from my parents that it may spoil my vision. Actually, I just have to read on bed by complusion, I find it very pampering and comfortable to lie down and read. I even do it to put myself to sleep. [djemba]
*Nods Head in Agreement!* Yes, it is seriously a sinfully bad habit to have! But it feels really great to just lie in bed after a hard day's of work and read! Best is when we read ourselves to sleep and find ourselves waking up the next morning with the book still in our hands. Lol. I just love that sort of feeling! And that feeling is a feeling that we can never capture while doing anything else! Well take care and happy mylotting!! [angelia286]
I also like reading book. I cant remember any thing that I studied in bed normally coursebook because you need great attention to read course book. But I like to read ebooks from mobile when I am in bed. One thing, you cant remember a single chapter of course book even you read twice with great attention where as once you read love story or anything besides course book you can remember it for whole life, isnt it funny ? [umeshthapa]
Thats really weird!The same thing happens to me too.lol [sweetyethot]
Hello sweetyethot! Well, I do read in bed. When I was in highschool, I was addicted reading love stories that even if it's too dark, I still forced myself to read. My mom once scolded me, because she said I am too abusive with my eyes that she got the books and hide it from me. [aisaellis22]
Most of the time I read, while seated. I do read in bed, sometimes. The problem with reading in bed is that I can never finish reading it because I'll fall asleep. The best time for reading is in the morning, I guess. [yanzalong]
Hello there. I used to read in bed. Now I don't. In fact, it has been a while since I last read a book. This year, I didn't ready any yet. Didn't even start a book. I should practice reading more, but not so often. I usually don't feel like reading anymore. I know that, if I get a good book, I'll keep myself into it, and will like the story. But the problem is getting a book. I'm a bit lazy in doing it. I didn't use to like to read in bed, because I couldn't find a good position, then my neck started hurting, and I was falling asleep but the book was there... Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
yeah i have a habit of reading before going to bed..This could be the only good habit i have..I read almost every night till 1 but f its at a critical point i just stay awake and read all night [djemba]
I like reading books in bed too.I feel it comfortable.I prefer to read novels rather than textbook.Moreover,I'd like to turn off all the lights but a lamp.As far as I conccerned it is very satisfied.I could keep thinking in quiet without disturbing. When I was young,I'd like to read love stroy.Now besides the love story,I'd like to read the poem, detective story,and so on. Best wishes and happy mylotting! [njblair]
Just like you i love reading books in bed. I really find it comfortable to read while i lie down in bed though my mom would tell me often times that it would strain my eyes and may damage it eventually of the line of vision is quite dark but I just love it when I am in bed. Sometime i would find myself sleeping especially during the wee hours of the morning while I am still hugging on the book that I read. I just miss those days since I am too exhausted when I go to bed lately. Have a great day!!! [kenchiprincess]
Reading books before going to bed is the only time I get(sometimes I do try to take out time to read inbetween). So normally I sit on the bed and read, but sit in upright position so that it doesn't put strain on my eyes. As soon as I start getting drowsy, I stop reading. [comfort55]
Or if the book is extremely attractive and you couldnt help but keep reading.happy [sweetyethot]
I don't read that much anymore, but I used to read an awful lot in bed! I used to stay up until as late as 4am if the book I was reading happened to be incredibly exciting with a good storyline! I think reading is a lovely thing to do, as it broadens the imagination and helps us to educate ourselves about a lot of things. [GemmaR]
Yeah,a man who reads a lot can tell you everything! [sweetyethot]
hiiiii sweetyeho nice discussion yaar.I usually read all kinds of stories and even my college tet books in bed.this became a habit for me from childhood.Even my dad scolding me dont read in bed this is not a good habit.But i cant quit this habit.For me it will be very comfortable in bed for reading.I like to read in bed.Any way nice posting. Friends happy mylotting. [srisankeerth]
Thank you. Im so glad you like my post!Sleeping in bed is really not a good habit.Its tiring for our body and eyesight.Yet, we still think its relaxing.Plus, its much better than watching TV before you fall asleep.happy [sweetyethot]
I still read love stories in bed now.It make me falling sleep more quickly.If i am very tired i will ont read that day.Usually,i read kinds of books.The book you introduce i wiil read when i have time. [nzl8343]
Its a nice book.You can finish in no more than 3hrs if you're a fast reader. I could have finished it in one night if not for the health's consideration. [sweetyethot]
I read in bed whenever i can. I love to settle down with a book and generally after a while i fall asleep. I have a pile of reading material on my side of the bed and i have another pile in the bathroom too. I read whenever possible. I carry a book in my bag when i go on a long bus journey or flight and try to read, but it is not very comfortable doing that while travelling by bus.. [kiran8]
Sometimes, I also carry a book while taking a bus, but I seldom read ! Its usually not very comfortable. [sweetyethot]
Hi Sweety, Yes I sometimes read in bed. It depends, because I read about everywhere in the house! When I really want to relax and enjoy a book, I tend to take a long hot bath. [yezzyk]
Read while taking a long hot bath. Or when in summer,enjoy reading while taking a long cool bath. Haha, relaxing.lol [sweetyethot]
I often read in bed. There have been times when I've been reading for what seems like a few minutes, only to be startled by the sunlight peeking through the window! [MonkOVision]
Seems that you're a bookworm!lol [sweetyethot]
I read in bed every night, it helps me calm down and put things out of my mind. [laglen]
I always wanna read every night, but never make it. Sometimes, I watch too much TV. Read more and watch less TV.lol [sweetyethot]
How could so many people read in bed? I think it's a good habit though. But as for me I'm so tired by the end of the day that I go to sleep almost immediately. The few days when I'm not tired I prefer to reply to mylot. ;-) [jsgomes]
Its a good habit but its also tiring.But I could help finishing the book if its interesting. [sweetyethot]
I do read in bed, but it's not always a good idea for me. If I'm even the least bit tired, then I fall asleep to quickly. If I'm not tired and the book is really good, then it keeps me up all night. I can't win. LOL [itsmefaith]
I never stay up reading any book. I take care of my health.Sleeping is more important , i think.lol [sweetyethot]
I love to read, and I love reading in bed, because I'm really usually comfortable in my bed, and everything. I much prefer to be comfortable when I read. It's much more pleasant that way. But I always love to read, no matter where I am. So long as I have a good book with me, I'm happy, and satisfied. [dodo19]
Yes i also read some books in bed . General i read some story books in bed. [cpnarnaulia]
i do enjoy reading books, however it is hard for me to read in bed mainly because there isn't enough lighting. i've tried reading in bed but i just end up straining my eyes. i thought about buying another lamp for my room, but i decided that i'll just read during the day [tooincome]
My bedroom has enough lighting,so I have problem with that.Well, reading in the daytime will be better for our eyesight.happy [sweetyethot]
Since I started reading, my favorite place to read is in my bed. I am more relaxed and comfortable reading while hugging my pillow or feeling the sheets of my bed. And I put my books in my bedside so anytime I want to read I can just reach my books. Sometimes i fall asleep while reading thats why its a good thing I read in bed. [aquiah]
haha, my bed also has some books that i wanna read or am reading lately.happy [sweetyethot]
I always read in bed because I feel so relaxed before I get to sleep. I am now reading the twilight series. . Im now in book 2. [shalybhe29]
Yes, I read in bed. I love it. Before bed is the only time I get to do any reading so it's my way to relax before finally closing my eyes for the night :) [tracie1758]
I read almost every night in bed before I go to sleep. It's my last way of unwinding for the night. When I was taking classes for my degree, there were some nights I'd read my textbook in bed, but not many because I'd fall asleep. [reinydawn]
Hi, textbooks tend to make you sleepy.lol [sweetyethot]
I read in bed sometimes when I'm having trouble falling asleep (I'm almost done reading 'The Chronicles of Narnia' and have read the whole series of 'Harry Potter'). I only do it when I'm having trouble sleeping; I don't read at any other times. [huejass]
I really dont used to read in bed. I prefer reading while sitting in a couch. I experienced reading in my bed, what happened was I slept. I wasn't able to finish my reading. It took me to sleep while reading in bed though I stopped it. I want to read while listening to a music. I can't read if there's no sound. [ShanLhey]
Hi Sweetythot!i love reading in bed whether it is a love story, fiction, reviewer for exams or any other article.I am a bookworm and I find it more relaxing reading in bed than sitting in my study table. I can only read books leisurely and I spend more time reading it when I'm in bed. Perhaps, the only time you can see me reading something in my study table is when I'm cramming for my exams for the next day because I don't want to sleep without taking a glance at it...hehehe...You know, i love reading but sometimes i find it exhausting studying for exams. [kaitan]
I read in bed sometimes as it helps me relax and get to sleep. I do not read romance but I do find it comfortable to read while laying in bed. It is comfy! [sirensanssmile]
Yes I do read in bed. Sometimes if i have extra time I will lay on my bed and prop up the pillows and read but NOT a love story.angry I like Mysterys.happy [muscles4me]
I usually read in a bed but not before my sleep. I go to night sleep too late to be able to read anything useful, maybe sometimes I read through a newspaper or magazine but not a book. I read books in my bed during my free time in a day. I usually make tea and prepare some snacks to eat, and read lying few cushions so I am comfortable. [Lindery]
Sometimes I read in bed in the morning or before I nap at noon in summertime.I dont eat snacks when reading.lol [sweetyethot]
I read in bed only when I can't sleep. I read newspapers, and sometimes i lern there. [mairuszj91]
Hi, No, I don't. I believe Reading is a Serious effort, by itself(whether U read a light subject book even). I want to respect the creator(writer), thus I read sitting--in my reading table. =Lahiri,Kolkata,India. [forslahiri]
I agree that reading is a serious effort.Thats why I dont read textbooks in bed. They are always serious, right?However, reading in bed is relaxing, yet its not very comfortable, and its also bad for your eys.At daytime, I prefer read sitting by my reading table.happy Have a good day! [sweetyethot]
I read in bed. Almost everyday, I spend an hour to read in bed before go asleep. I think it helps a lot. [zhangfzoe]
I have always had a strange result from reading in bed. Given the fact that I am in bed and generally tired, it is not uncommon for me to fall asleep while reading - though sometimes I will get so engrossed in a book as to stay awake and continue reading until the sun comes up! The odd thing that happens, though, is that when I fall asleep reading, my mind tends to continue the story! I 'dream' what happens next in the story. Of course, my 'dreamed' version of the continuing events and the author's version do not coincide - but it sure makes for an interesting story! [thorgrym]
Ha! That thought had occurred to me...happy [thorgrym]
I like reading in bed sometimes, because I find it relaxing to do. If I am finding it especially difficult to fall asleep, I often try reading in bed. The feeling of relaxation that comes from reading in bed will often allow me to fall asleep. Have a great day! happy [fineartist]
no, i don't read in bed. i love to read but can never get fixed right to read in bed. lol [ANTIQUELADY]
Yes, I do read in bed. . .its a very relaxing activity. . . = ) [shalybhe29]
Yep I read in bed often almost every night, unless I run out of things to read then I have to get more I read a lot of the paranormal books. Like Laurell K Hammilton, Lynsay sands, and many others. I also read some mysteries and self help and other interesting books. Just depends on what I'm in the mood for at the time. Well I hope you have a nice night and take care. [bellaofchaos]
I read in bed all of the time, it's my fav. place for reading. sometimes that helps me to sleep other times I can't sleep because I want to finish what am reading. ^_^ [agirlfromtomorrow]
Aw... reading actually keeps me from sleeping if the book is interesting. rasp [lordwarwizard]
Hi sweety, Sure I do. I mean, where else can you read lol. It is not the best of positions but I do quite a bit of my reading on my bed. Cheers! lol [lordwarwizard]
Rarely do I read in bed. Majority of the time, I read everything I want to know online. [hdjohnson]
I dont like reading online.Its tiring and not good for our health.Besides,You cant enjoy turning pages if you read online.lolCheers! [sweetyethot]
I believe the best place to read a book is the bed. It's warm and comfortable - I often read before bedtime and should I feel sleepy, I can just close the book and sleep. lol [lazeebee]
I never read in bed.Because my parents told me that it is bad for my eyesight since I was a child. [pxhnchsh]
yes i read in bed....like a mad..just a day before my exam ... then the other day i sleep like a mad. [ankit_620]
Read in bad and eat books like a mad,then the other day sleep like a mad.lolSounds cool! [sweetyethot]
I have not been reading anything lately, except on the computer.happy I used to read a lot a few years back and yes I did red in bed. when I was in school, i remember reading a lot of comics in bed. and in those days Hardy boys, and Enid Blyton were quite popular. Billy Bunter was a popular character. [mercuryman3a]
Sure, I do enjoy reading in be. Although I know it's a bad habit. As I heard that it's harmful for your eyesight. But I feel quite comfortable to read in bed. I love China [youless]
Hi sweetyethot! I love reading. It so happened however that for the past few months, I have been busy to really sit down and read. Before, I would love reading in any position until I was told that my eyesight can be affected. If I would read in bed, I would sit against the headboard with a pillow to support my back.
