Trish is this month's host and this month's theme is Unusual Reading Spots. You can read Trish's full post here

I must be a pretty normal reader because I don't think I really have any unusual reading spots. I'm pretty sure that while these might seem unusual to some people I know, my reader friends will find them quite normal

1. Sitting in my car in the driveway. This happens when I get home and there's only a few minutes left in the audiobook I'm listening to.

I've been known to sit in the driveway or in the garage to finish up an audiobook.

2. In line just about anywhere. This photo is in the customer service line at our local store waiting to return something.

Luckily I had a ebook from the library on my phone because I had a few 'everything is complicated' people in front of me in line.

3. My laundry room. OK, so this doesn't happen often but it has happened a few times.

I've gone upstairs to get my book and realized that the washing machine will be finishing the cycle in a few minutes so I've stood there and read in the laundry room until it finished and I could put the clothes in the dryer and start the next load.

4. My stairwell. Now this one I'll admit might be classified as unusual. On the days I work from home I try to do anything I can to get extra steps in. I usually try to spend my lunch break on the treadmill but some days it doesn't work out for me to do that.

I have been known to pick up my book and go up and down the stairs while I read a chapter. I don't do this with books that have long chapters. It's nice to get a few extra stairs in for my FitBit stats on my work from home days.

And I definitely think these count as unusual. I totally forgot to factor in audio when I was writing up my post until I saw Melissa's post about being at the dog park and listening to audio. And I've been caught in the driveway several times by Scott. Now that he's an audio listener I think he gets it!
Lisa, 1/17/2013 7:21 PM: The stairs! That's crazy!
SuziQoregon, 1/22/2013 8:20 PM: Trish: LOL - actually if it's a paperback or an ebook I do OK. Hardbacks are more dangerous ;-)

Lisa: yeah - it's kind of crazy but on my work from home days I really need to try to counteract the sitting at the desk time.
