All good and true book-lovers practice the pleasing and improving avocation of reading in bed....No book can be appreciated until it has been slept with and dreamed over. ~ Eugene Field, Love Affairs of a Bibliomaniac (1896)
What a great quote. I always read in bed before going to sleep and it has been a nightly ritual for me from my earliest years of reading. The bed becomes a magic carpet to whisk you away into the world of the book. And now with eBooks I can read under the covers without waking my wife!!

Nowadays more using Ipad at bedsite but seems to be prolonging too much going to sleep
That is So True Dr. Kelp!
Not only do I always read myself to sleep (currently reading 1984), but I also take a lot of pleasure in reading to my kids when they're in bed :-)
Many a morning I have woken to books in strange places in my bed.
