Musing Mondays (June 8)

Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about reading time…

Do you have a set reading time (before bed, perhaps)? Do you read more at night or during the day? Is there a day of the week, perhaps, that you set aside to catch up on reading?

PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Musing Mondays post, or share your opinion in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks.

 

 

I know that most people read before they go to bed, but I try to avoid this as much as possible – unless I’m going to bed early specifically to read. I find that once I start reading I get so caught up in the story and keep “just one more page”-ing my way through a good chunk of the book. It’s not good for my sleep.

Because of this, I do tend to read much more during the day and usually read for an hour or two of a morning*. I do my cosy, flannel pyjama, wrapped up in a blanket reading of a morning instead of night. This has an added bonus in our house, as everyone tends to be late risers – nice quiet reading time!

I also do a lot of reading throughout the day on a Sunday because of it being my library day. I usually come home with a new stack of books and settle down in the comfy chair for awhile.

 

*Of course, these days I’m not getting up early like I usually do, so my ‘morning’ are decidedly later, but oh well
