I’ve been wanting to join Top Ten Tuesday for a long time now. But somehow it just never happened. Well.. I finally thought it was time to just jump right in. And I’m so excited to share my first Top Ten Tuesday with you guys. For those who don’t know.. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic:
Favorite Places to Read
To be completely honest with you, I found it definitely challenging to find ten of my favorite places to read. So I ended up with only six.. but they are pretty awesome if I do say so myself.
Corfu, Greece
Back in 2012, my husband and I visited Corfu, Greece. We spend ten days in this amazing apartment looking out over the mountains and it this perfect reading spot. So perfect I ended up making a photo and using the photo for my blog ever since. I still think about this spot a lot to be honest. I was completely and utterly content and happy when this photo was made. And I read a lot during that vacation. Not to mention we had a great time getting to know the Island. We definitely hope to visit their again soon.
The Living Room
The place I read the most is definitely our couch in the living room. In the evening I usually read there while my husband watches a movie, or is playing the PSP. I love being near him, but still doing my own thing. And it’s pretty comfy too.
My Little Library
I’ve always had a dream of having my very own little library. Since moving to this house two years ago, I finally have it. And I have the perfect reading spot right there.
Bed
Whatever happens, or how tired I am, I always read in bed before we go to sleep. Somedays it’s the only reading time I got and I love it. It’s my way of relaxing after a busy mom day. And it’s comfy too. And yes I do fall asleep at times while reading in bed. My husband is used to taking my classes off and putting my book aside. LOL!!
Lanzarote
During our honeymoon in 2017, we had this gorgeous little house. It was literally a dream. We had a gigantic luxurious bathroom and our very own private pool. And it was perfect for reading.
Mexico
In 2014 we went on to an Eco Resort in Mexico. It was our longest flight to date, and it was amazing. We did an all inclusive so we had drinks (lots and lots of cocktails) and food whenever we wanted. We stayed on this lounge bed near the water a lot and it was perfect for reading. We hope to be able to take our kids there one day.
What are some of your favorite places to read?

Ooh nice picks! I find if I’m somewhere new, I’m more likely to be out doing activities than reading. Even on long trips, I’m just go go all day and then by the time it’s bedtime, I crash. Lol. Great places though!

Have a GREAT day!

I totally get that. I always end up doing both and not sleeping much. 😀
Okay, that photo from Lanzarote? My idea of heaven. I adore reading while in a pool. It’s seriously my happiest of places to be. So being on an island, while lazily reading in a pool… that’s the ultimate goal! 🙂
Amazing right?! I think I sat there every day.. it was just so perfect.
You have some amazing reading spots. Here at home, my favorite is in our living room next to our front window. My husband is not a reader, so while he watches movies or catches up on shows, I can still be near him while reading. When we rented a cabin quite a few years ago, the owner had a hammock that I loved to read in and listen to Lake Michigan and the wildlife.
Thanks. A hammock is definitely on my list of spots to read in too. It always looks so comfy. 😀
Oh that’s some great places!
Thank you 😀
