I too enjoy being in the warm shade. Shade here is often too cool. Some of the best books I've read have come from small scrappy book collections in holiday accommodation. I enjoy the discipline of having to choose from a limitedl selection of slim pickings.

You are exactly right - sometimes there is too much book choice. I guess I love watching a sunny day as an onlooker rather than fully participating in it!

I really enjoyed this trip to a Portuguese poolside. A reading holiday, now there’s an idea! A great piece of writing x

Loved this……. Like you I love a few days in the sun (without the sunbathing) and it is fascinating people watching, including their book choices. Thanks for making me smile Sx

Thank you much for this encouragement and glad I’m not the only one does the sun without sunbathing!
