Yes, I usually read a chapter in bed - unless I'm too tired to stay awake.

Not really. My bed time routine has always been no activity 30 min before sleeping.

I read in bed all the time. I want to focus when reading with less destruction especially when the book is captivating. I want to grasp every bit bit of it and the best place I find is always my bed

I read in bed. Usually I only read one chapter before I can't keep my eyes open any longer - that is unless the book is so good that sleep becomes unimportant.

Yes, most nights. I usually read one chapter, or if it's a long chapter, I will try to divide it in half.

I like to read in bed with my comfy blanket and 'kulambo' socks. I can read for hours in bed, but sometimes papa turned the music so loud, it's just annoying. I can't stop him, I love him, and that's one way to his happiness- to listen to music.

I do, although lately I'm so tired that I fall asleep! But, in general, I can read anywhere.

I like to read in bed but nowadays I switch places to read because my little niece is noisy and my papa is so reactive to movies he watches so I move away. So, I ended up tying my hammock under the tree, hearing birds chirping as well. It's so nice.

I usually avoid reading in bed because I don't want to associate my reading activity with my sleep and rest. Since I have bad insomnia and reading in bed doesn't help me fall asleep either, I don't find reading in bed working for the likes of me. So I mostly read while I'm plainly sitting or walking while listening to some music.

I love to read before bed. It helps me wind down and get ready to sleep. I haven’t read any of the Jack Reacher books.
