2016 Smart Bitches Extrava-Hanukkah Giveaway, Part 7

graphic image of menorah with a book in front. It's probably supposed to be the torah or something but I'm pretending it's a romanceIt’s the seventh night of the Extrava-Hanukkah Giveaway! Only two nights left – so let’s get this one going, eh?

I hope you’ve been having a lovely holiday and are surrounded by warm and delicious things, and possibly warm and delicious people, if you’re into that kind of thing (I hope not. Warm people are good. Eating people… not so much.)

So that took a turn.

Anyway, perhaps you’re surrounded by everyone and everything you love, or perhaps you need some time to yourself to recharge and read. Or both! (I really hope you’re not surrounded by cannibals.)

Today’s giveaway:

A Kindle Paperwhite WiFi with Special Offers!

And you’re going to want to put books on it, I presume, so we’ll add a $25 gift card to go with it. Woo!

All you need to do to enter is tell us where is your favorite place to read? Even if it’s not real, or if it’s far away, share one of your favorite locations to read and relax, and you’re entered to win.

Standard disclaimers apply:  I’m not being compensated for this giveaway. Void where prohibited. Must be 18 years of age and ready to turn up your Paperwhite brightness to eleven. Unless it hurts your eyes. Then do whatever is most comfortable for you! Open to international residents where permitted by applicable law. Comments will close at or near 12pm ET on Saturday 31 December 2016 and winners will be announced shortly afterward.

Update: Jamie is our winner! We have one more giveaway left! Best of luck!

    In the winter–on my couch, with a fleecy blanket, large cup of tea, my phones (I still have a landline because I am old), and my dog or one of the cats nearby.

    In the summer–on my screened-in porch, with a large drink, and my phones nearby. The animals are sprawled all over the porch.

    On a hammock in the shade on a warm day with a light breeze…and now I want it to be spring

  3. Erin says:

    Airplanes. Always airplanes.

  4. Erika says:

    My favorite would be between two tall palm trees by a warm ocean somewhere. Maybe Tahiti.

  5. Michelle says:

    Curled up on the couch, with the cats, a cozy blanket, and a hot cup of tea or a great glass of wine!

  6. DonnaMarie says:

    Menopause has sent my circadian rhythm off its axis. Instead of being in the up all night section of The Bad Decisions Bookclub ™, I’m now in the late for work because I’ve been awake reading since 5am group. All in the service of saying my bed all snuggly and warm.

  7. M L says:

    I read everywhere and anytime I have a break. The bus ride, waiting for the doctor, in line at the grocery store, but my favorite place to read is in favorite coffee shop with some music playing in the background.

  8. Melissa says:

    I love to read in bed. I’ve ruined my eyes reading in bed by a nightlight in 2nd grade, and still haven’t learned my lesson.

  9. S.Rose says:

    Flipped on the couch with cup of tea.

  10. camilla says:

    my couch! With puppies.

    My couch.

  13. Karen D says:

    I have a recliner in the loft of our house where I love to snuggle with a blanket and a cat (oh look, I’m doing that right now!). I’m surrounded by bookcases and there’s a window I can gaze out. Tis perfect:-)

  14. Sitting in the shade, Kindle in hand, birds singing, dogs sleeping at my feet, soft breeze blowing…

    In reality, anyplace I can grab a minute or two to plug in an audio book or grab my Kindle. 😀

  15. Vanessa says:

    My back porch.

  16. Nettle says:

    Curled up on the sofa with many blankets.

  17. Sola says:

    In bed. Ahhhhh.

  18. Azure says:

    My favorite place to read is in the huge, old recliner right by the fire. I get to keep warm in cold weather and I get to enjoy a good book in comfort.

  19. Katie Lynn says:

    By the pool, under an umbrella on a nice warm day. It’s going to be a while till I can do that again, though. Thanks, winter!

  20. CoreyL says:

    On my nice comfy couch with my big white dog snuggled on/around me.

  21. Elaine G says:

    My favorite place to read is in bed.

  22. Rebe says:

    Definitely in bed!

  23. tikaanidog says:

    my chair in my living room 🙂

  24. peggy h says:

    In bed, tucked under the covers when it’s cold outside and I can hear the howling winds.

  25. Lynnette says:

    In the recliner with a comfy throw and a cup of tea. It’s in the in the addition off my kitchen, with walls of windows to enjoy nature and keep track of the birds at the feeder on the window.

  26. Kim W says:

    My favorite place is in the hot tub. I had my kindle waterproofed at Waterfi just for that reason.

  27. MMVZ says:

    I like to read in bed.

  28. Swisspotluck says:

    I like to read in the car while waiting for children as I escort them to and from various after school activities and events.

  29. Emily E says:

    I like the window seat in my kitchen. Waiting for food. Waiting for laundry. Sun, cat, and a view of the garden.

  30. jas says:

    my bed. Or if I have the chance there is a park in Paris across from the notre dame where I once spent an amazing afternoon reading The Age Of Innocence. I would do that again in a heartbeat

  31. Lina says:

    In bed, with a little chocolate. When the kids are asleep.

  32. Megan S. says:

    In bed on a rainy morning, with at least one dog cuddled at my side. Or kicking me in the ribs, as the case often is.

  33. SueX. says:

    At the beach.

  34. Julie says:

    Reading in bed late at night is the best.

  35. Kat says:

    My favorite place to read is actually at work. I’m a librarian, and on my breaks I sneak up to the quiet reading room on the third floor. The room is glass on three sides, so I have an amazing view of the downtown area. Also, comfy chairs, baby!

  36. AndreaT says:

    My favorite place to read is in my bed, under a fleece blanket with a hot cup of coffee. That’s exactly what I’m doing now!

    Thanks!

  37. Trudi Geniale says:

    My favorite time to read is in my bed snuggled under the covers!
    I also love to sit in my favorite chair by the fire with a good historical novel! It makes me feel like I’m back in the 19th. Century!

  38. Erin says:

    My favorite place to read is right in my own bed. I make a snuggly nest of blankets and curl up and let the story take me away.

  39. Realistically, I will read pretty much anywhere. But my favorite place to read is at home, on the sofa, with a greyhound on either side of me. Because they prefer to be touching me at all times. What is personal space? I do not know.

  40. YesLikeTheColor says:

    Everywhere! In line, at lunch, in bed, on the couch, the car, at school, work.
