5 Places to Read Peacefully Other than Your Bed

Have you ever been told that you should not study or read in bed? Well, people provide a lot of reasons behind saying this statement like – concentration is less when you are in comfort; bed will only make you sleepy and not read or study properly; using a chair or sitting straight can give you good posture. The bed is not the only place where you can read, there are a lot of places to read a book, and the shift will certainly make you feel better. Here is a list of 5 places to read peacefully other than your bed.

Park

Reading in a park between bird noises, pretty flowers or just plain green trees and ground full of grass sounds just like the main character from a cottagecore movie daydreaming in the greens and melting hearts of the viewers. The renowned poet Rabindranath Tagore was fond of studying or reading between the natures. It makes you more creative and opens your heart to that of the thought of the writer, and helps you better to think on your own and relate to the poet and nature better.

Public Library

Public library and reading – doesn’t that remind you of that Allen Ginsberg movie ‘Kill Your Darlings’, played by Daniel Radcliffe, or just the hallway and classroom of the Harry Potter movie. Yes, public libraries are capable of giving you that feeling of that nerd or knowledge freak character from the books. Using different books from the library to create notes or to know more about a writer – using pen and highlighter to make annotations of a particular line or even writing things down that is not related to the book – all of this is one of the best feelings of a reader or book lover.

Coffee Shops

Be it caramel macchiato or iced matcha green tea latte, having coffee or your favorite beverage in a café while you are reading, your favorite book, or the book you were waiting to read – it fits the mood and scenario, right? You would not want the beverage to end, the sky to stop spreading its colors, and your mind to stop reading the lines. A romantic novel that goes from enemies to lovers just fits in the scenario of a coffee shop.

A Comfortable Chair by a Fire Place

A comfortable chair, fireplace, cozy blanket, or winter wears like a turtle neck underneath a black trench coat, and something like The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde or Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein in hand just gives off the dark academia vibe. All the heart-wrenching, violent, and coy is the type of person that she enjoyed. This only gives the main character vibe from movies like Maurice and Dead Poets Society.

Study Table

A study table is the easiest and the most common alternative to a bed. Since it is a study table, you just know that you will have to focus and concentrate on whatever you are reading or studying. Just sitting on a chair and keeping the book in front of the table sounds motivating enough. And added to that, it is beneficial for your posture as well unless you slouch too much. People always recommend studying or reading on study tables and avoiding bed, because it is for sleeping purposes only.
