Jan. Reading, Reading Nook, Reading Companions

I have caught up on all my reviews!  The next one is scheduled for tomorrow, and now I can go back to the library for another batch.  I've read 14 books this month, of varying quality.  My favorites were The Swan Thieves by Elizabeth Kostova, That Old Cape Magic by Richard Russo, and The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley.

So much difference in content, style, and length in those three, but I thoroughly enjoyed them all.  I discovered two new authors that were entertaining, Lee Childs and Asa Larsson.

We are all settled in our new house now, and my reading nook in the bedroom is a delight for me.  I can read or embroider and not litter the living room with my stacks of books and embroidery bits and pieces.

On top of the bookcase, one of the old clocks from Laddie's (my dad) collection, a piece of Mother's carnival glass, and the  doll Fee's mother won at the fair in the 1930's.  She looks a bit like Mae West doesn't she?

Only Stinker is present at the moment.  The rest of the Triad (Lucy and Edgar) are elsewhere causing havoc.

Favorite Reading Chair

When I visit Librarian Avengers, I often find something I like. For example, these chairs from popgadgets are fun and practical for a reader. So thanks to the Avengers, once again, for an interesting take on "my favorite reading chair."

What about your favorite reading chair? Or couch or spot? Is it the same all year round? I know in warm weather, I have a chair outside that sees a lot of service, but the faithful recliner sees me all year. Post a picture of your chair and leave a link here in the comments section so we can see the various seats of imagination. Here is a link to mine.
