My reading space is usually a corner in my office, OP (pic related). Doesn't really photograph that well because the light comes in the window over the shoulder, which means photos are backlit pretty harshly.

That said, it's a pretty comfy spot.

Cozy as fuck

>>8010938
Looks comfy but I can't stand reading without a table for my book

I've set up shop in a cafe in the city in whose suburbs I live. Pic related. I sit inside facing the window when it's too hot or too cold, otherwise I sit out on the patio and occasionally get my books shit on by birds.

First thought was: This dude is so patrician.
Then I saw those titles and I imagined some 60 year old republican that I would call 'sir'. (I am republican myself so that wasnt a bad thing)

32, actually. I supposed I am here for the same reasons everyone else is - boredom mixed in with a desire to discuss literature while also sometimes shitposting.

>>8010981
The bookshelves themselves kind of work as a table, though I admit it's not ideal. That said, most of my reading these days is (alas) done more for my own personal edification than anything else, so the need for a table on which I can set books I'm reading while I jot down notes is diminished. I do have a desk in same room I can use when the need arises.

Hah! You are not entirely wrong. That said, actual literary works are on shelves on a wall opposite these. Also on those shelves (though not an example literary works) are Marx and Marcuse, who sit between Madison and Mill. It's generally a good thing to be widely read, I think we will all agree, even (perhaps especially) when we don't share the same views as our books' authors.

>>8011036
I see your point. I just could never get myself to pay for that theological fiction that Marx wrote. Only time I got to read those books was during college because they were part of the syllabus.

Candle underneath a towel beside a stack of books on a bookshelf full of books. Real smart

I get pretty comfy whilst walking on a treadmill or laying in bed. I don't like sitting for extended periods of time.

Dark and blood souls could be pretty comfy. I especially liked Byrgenwerth in Bloodborne. I wish amygdala had been the spider instead of Rom
