The couch, with my back straigtened against the armset and my legs lifted and stretched on the couch.

On my bed or on the can. Smile

However, for some reason, whenever I read manga, I tend to feel sleepy. Why is that?

I read manga wherever i am at when the urge to read manga hits me. Usually end up sitting on my bed reading with books spread out around me or roaming around the house with the book in my line of vision. Not my problem if the dog doesn't move while I'm reading.

My bed. It's not very comfortable, but it's the best I've got.

My record for reading manga is 8 hours solid, but that was in front of my computer.

GODS I want one of those sumo bean bag things!

I read either on my bed, computer chair, or the couch.

I do read in bed before I fall asleep, but the couch is my favorite spot. And I'll sit at the computer if I'm chatting while I happen to be reading as well.

Wherever I feel the urge to. At home, I've been known to laze about Sunday afternoons on the couch, which seems to be my favorite place. In my room, I'll just lie in bed, and on occasion, sit in front of the computer. At school, there are a variety of places. For starters, there's the bed in my dorm room (I cannot stand reading on this wooden chair). I'll also read in the time gap between classes, either in the business school's lobby or in the book stacks at the library (nice and quiet there). There was also the one-time deal where I started reading at a gas station while waiting for my car to pass state inspection.

Oh, I'm glad to see that I'm not alone with this custom. Wink I usually don't leave my house without having something to read and especially in between classes if I'm bored, don't feel like talking or for the simple fact that I am too damn curious to know what happens next in the manga that I'm currently reading. Embarassed Very Happy

I prefer my sofa with my feet up... but I think I clearly need a sumo bean bag for this purpose. If I'm pressed with time I can read manga while I'm ironing or cooking, and quite often I read manga on the bus. One tankobon album takes about 45 minutes for me, which is pretty much exactly how much my trip to work and back takes... but that limits the type of manga to what I can read in public... or leave at my desk at work for that matter Wink Currently at my desk is the latest volume of NANA, I just couldn't wait until I'd get home Smile

I read in my office on my lunch break at work. Sometimes I will come home and read it on my couch before my boyfriend comes home, and then I know it's time to start dinner.

I usually lay down on my bedroom floor on my stomach to read manga, either that or I'll sit on a couch, but I'm usually on the floor.

I usually give all my manga a read through from a comfortable spot, like my bed or a couch. Larger editions, like Vertical's Ode to Kirihito, or Buddha, or Akira and the like, I read at a desk, because I tend to get sleepy reading, and I find I can concentrate better if I'm sitting at a desk.

I almost always read on my bed cause its nice and comfy and being a college student I don't really have any other piece of furniture which feels good to sit on... plus I tend to read before I go to bed early in the morning so it makes it easy to just kinda move from reading to sleeping.

Well I have a few prefered locations. I will read wherever I am if I am not by one of my prefered spots. Here are the usual places though where I read my manga and anything else.

---On my nice soft dark brown leather recliner chair in my room, with the foot rest of course. You can just fall right into this thing and it's so comfy.

---Laying in my bed, or whoever's bed I'm in Shocked , with my back propped up. I can't read laying flat, gotta be propped up.

---Sitting at my desk in the guest room. Usually I fill out bills and write checks, or make resin models, here. Might get bored and open one of the volumes I keep in the drawer. My emergency stash heh.

---On the sofa in the living room with my legs hanging over the end. It's actually a "love seat" so it seats 2 tightly. Being 6'1 means my feet dangle over the side.

I also will read in the break room at my new job, or any previous ones, and also I used to read in between my college classes.
