Yes, I love to read. Nothing like snuggling up with a good book.
Last night, I did this with a candle burning and a glass of wine. And I didn't even spill the wine. I've had some wine issues lately. Issues with spilling, issues with swallowing sharp objects in my glass. Such issues;-). No issues last night, thankfully.
I was absolutely wiped out exhausted, though, and still somehow managed to pull of doing 2 different selfies and edits. Then I got back into bed to read. LOVE getting into bed after a long day. Relaxing with a good book, then snapping off the light to zzzzz...
Right now I am reading The Goldfinch. It's pretty heavy and hard to digest so I am reading it slow. I'm disturbed here because I was at a part in the book where the main character is contemplating his suicide. See...heavy.
I think my favorite book of all time is To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. That and Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett.
I love to read, but seldom seem to find the time lately! I'm struggling through 'Wicked' at the moment - not as light and fluffy as I was expecting, given that the musical is based on it. Cool pic!
Wonderful lighting on this selfie! And now you've got me thinking about choosing my fav book of all time - going to have to think on that a long while - so many choices...
I could go for the wine and snuggling up, but not with a book! LOL LOL I'm dyslectic and reading is very hard for me. Show me something and I can learn it in a heart beat, just don't make me read about it and try to learn. I need to read a sentence anywhere from 1 to 3 times before I get it right...so give me the wine and I'll watch the movie!!! ROFL!! Great selfie and it really looks like you are perplexed!! Really like it in B/W!!
Swallowing sharp objects from your wine sounds dangerous! Love your selfie, you have such concentration on your face. I read every night when I get into bed... it's my sleeping pill :) Is the book worth reading or too much hard work?
@bella_ss I think it's worth reading. Hoping for redemption with the ending. So far, lots of work. It could have been dangerous...the sharp object. Thankfully I coughed it up. It was over an inch long (hard plastic, needle like). I wrote the company and so far am just getting reimbursed for the wine. I could have died!
@amandal Oh my god... I think they should be showering you with gifts! I once had something in a chocolate so sent it back to them and received LOTS of chocolate in return.
Serious frown, Amanda. Great light and another great selfie. I can't see a remote control, so how do you manage to look with such intense concentration when you have only seconds to jump into bed after pressing the shutter?
Nice capture. Very intent look. It has been so, so long since I read Ken Follett, I don't even recognize the title. I just Googled the book, and I remember it now, and the sequel too.
