We read in bed because reading is halfway between life and dreaming, our own consciousness in someone else's mind.
~Anna Quindlen, How Reading Changed My Life

Reading in bed is the best, isn't it? Sometimes, if I'm really into a book, my mind still goes on 'reading' even after I've turned off the light and shut my eyes. When I wake up in the morning I always have to remind myself what was in the book and what my mind conjured up the night before.

Oooo I love them. I like more the one on the left, it reflects exactly what it feels reading in bed :)
I never thought about it like that before, but it makes sense.

Great pictures. I love to read at the end of the day.
