My Favourite Places To Read

My Favourite Places To Read

August 17, 2021 Posted by angelreads Top Ten Tuesday 6 Comments

This week I’m sharing my favourite places that I love to read. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

I don’t read in a lot of different places, especially over the past year or so. As I’m writing this my state has gone into another lockdown. This is lockdown number #6, and my places to read at the moment are very limited. Meaning I can only just read at home. But anyway, today I’m sharing some of the places that I love to read. From places inside to outside here are some of my favourite places, like always these are in no order. 

My bed: This is probably my favourite place to read, it’s where I get most of my reading done. Especially right now as it’s winter and can get pretty cold. I can rug up, be under my blankets and stay warm. Sometimes it gets a little comfortable.

The train: While this isn’t exactly my favourite place to read, it’s where I get most of it done. I take the train too and from work when we aren’t in lockdown. It’s about a 40 min ride each way – so I get a lot of reading done this way.

Outside in the Sun: In the summer one of my favourite places to read is outside. I love the sun hitting me, the heat warming me up. And just taking everything in. It’s one of the most relaxing ways to read and I really did enjoy doing it. 

On the Beach/By the Pool: When we aren’t in lockdown and it’s summer, I do love reading by a pool or on the beach. Again, it’s the feeling of the sun on my skin. I really do miss reading like this – hopefully soon.

On the Couch: This is another place that I like to read in winter. We have a wood heater downstairs in the lounge and it’s the perfect way to warm up and read. It’s always one of my favourite places to do some reading at my best friend Ely’s house! We curl up and just chill.

    I mostly read during the day on the couch. It is what works best for me.

    Your daily train rides sound nice. I find it soothing to take the train.

    A great list of places! I have a bay window that I will sit in to read sometimes, especially on sunny days. The warmth of the sun on my back is so soothing.

    When you get the chance, I hope you stop by my post: https://readbakecreate.com/10-books-with-travel-locations-in-their-title/

    I read in bed a lot too. I also like reading on public transport, it’s one of the little things that I missed whilst we were in lockdown, and since I’ve now got a job that’s not remote (I work in a Covid vaccination centre), I have got that reading time back and have noticed a huge uptick in my audiobook listening. I like reading outside in the sun, but haven’t had much of a chance this year, as the UK’s summer has been somewhat….lacking in sun.

    You must get through so much reading on the train! If I was to get the bus, it would be a similar timescale, but I just can’t bring myself to do it when driving takes half the time even if it would help my reading haha! I do most of my reading in bed.

    I do most of my reading on the couch in the winter, and in the summer, I like to sit out in the sun. Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!

April was a very good reading month for me, especi April was a very good reading month for me, especially after last month. I had some really fantastic reads in April. I did do a lot of re-reading this month but I had such blast. I re-read Caught Up and Play Along and the first 4 books in the Ironside Academy series. 📚

I read some books that I’ve been waiting for including the new book from Kels and Denise Stone, as well as the new Tessa Hale. ✨

Overall it was such a good month, lots of binge reading series and starting on some new authors. I’m so excited to see what May brings. 🖤

What was your favourite book that you read in April?

IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️ If you didn’t know al IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️

If you didn’t know already I love F1, have ever since I was younger and decided that this year it would be fun to combined my love for F1 and reading together. 📚

After a week off we are back at it. We are in Miami this week’s and things are only just heating up. This week I’m reading Falling Off the Cliff  Kanitha P.

…

Formula 1 legend in the making and rising star Thiago Valencia is chasing redemption as well as his second World Champion title. With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam.

Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart.

When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire.

As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.
… 

How Race Week Reads Will Work 

On Monday of race week I’ll announce the book I’ll be reading for the week, then throughout the week I’ll be posting stories and my thoughts. And then on Sunday, race day my review and final thoughts will go up.

A little late but I am finally getting to share Ra A little late but I am finally getting to share Race 5’s Race Week Reads review. This week I read, Downforce (Pit Lane #1) by Hannah Lily.

🏎️ Review 🏎️

I had so much fun reading this book. I knew I was in for a ride as soon as I started Downforce. It was entertaining, fun, and I just had a good time reading it. And while it does explore some heavy topics, I don’t think it took away from the fun nature of the book.

Right from the start, we can see the tension between F1 Presenter, Olivia Fraser and F1 Driver, Jonah Scott. And while silly at times, it was fun seeing them interact together. Both really didn’t like each other. They both had said things about and to one another that sometimes it caused chaos. And I was here for it.

I did find that at times, just silly things happened. I am not a massive rom-com reader, and there was a lot of falling into one another, and arguments stemmed from nothing. This is honestly just because I don’t like these types of scenes, but it didn’t really make me dislike the book at all.

I loved the whole road trip aspect of the book, it’s different from other F1 books I’ve read so far this year and just made for some interesting banter and lust. I do wish that the road trip was a little longer than it was because I did feel like the romance moved pretty quickly here, but again, it didn’t really affect how much I was enjoying the book.

The romance was this combination of being slow burn and full of angst right at the start, to the road trip happening and then bam. But I loved it, though. The banter between Olivia and Jonah was fantastic. I loved seeing them grow not only with one another but with themselves as well.

Overall, I had a great time reading Downforce and will be continuing the series for sure when the other books come out. The romance was angsty and just felt right. The found family aspect really worked well here, and the F1 aspects were pretty okay. Not the best I’ve seen, but not the worst either. If you are looking for a fun read that has a great romance and a little rom-comy, then pick this one up.
I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. There have been so many books that I have enjoyed but there are some that I have just loved. 🖤

I didn’t realise before I put this post together that all of these books are from authors I’ve read and loved before. There hasn’t been a Rebecca Yarros book that I haven’t rated under 4 Stars. Elsie Silver is just making me love everything that she writes. Wild and Wrangled may be my favourite in the series. 📖

Three rereads also made it to this list. Binding 13 still makes me gasp and smile all at the same time. And Caught Up and Play Along just hit every time. 📚

I’ve honestly had a great year so far and since making this post a few more books I’ve read I’ve ended up loving. It’s going to be hard to pick my favourites at the end of the year that is for sure. ✨

What books have you loved reading this year? Are any books that made my list on yours? Let me know!
