I'm struggling getting back into "serious" reading and feel like my physical posture and environment is hindering me.
I used to read a lot (have inhaled many a Brandon Sanderson books on release) but I can't get into reading "hard" books. I read mainly in bed (with my kobo) but finding it tricky and I am turning into a hunchback. Audiobooks while cycling)/gym is great, but bit distracting for "hard" books.
How do ye do it?
Do you have a fav chair (will accept pictures if you could share!) or environment (like a reading nook)?
When and how do you make time to "digest" books?
Do you take notes and if so, how?
bonus question: what was a recent hard book that you enjoyed (and made you reframe stuff) and would recommend?
I read pretty much anywhere I have time to, usually while laying in bed or out hammocking. I'd say my favorite spot is a nearby state park hammocking in one specific area that gets sun through the canopy but not so much it's overbearing on a warm day. It's just a great scene to occasionally pause and look around.
It's a lot easier to read in a cushioned chair if I'm reading a physical book, but I mostly read on my kobo as well, so I don't have to worry about weight making my arms uncomfortable to hold a book in reclined positions.
