I’ve pals whose favourite means to learn is listening to audiobooks on their commutes, and others who convey a bodily e-book completely all over the place, studying whereas ready in line, at intermission, even whereas strolling.

Me, I like to learn in the bathtub. I’m an enormous fan of baths in common — I cope with a whole lot of physique aches and pains, and there’s no quicker means to ease these than scorching water, Epsom salts, and bubbles.

One final possibility for those who’re simply searching for one thing tremendous easy: a pillow-shaped tub pillow with two suction cups.

Maybe you simply want a spot to maintain your beverage. I’ve bought you! Go whimsical with this flamingo floating drink coozy (made for swimming swimming pools, however I’ve bought an analogous one which’s effective in the tub), or sensible with these hanging sleeves (simply add a hook to the wall). Or there’s this man — additionally helpful for bathe drinks, if that’s your factor!

There are simply two issues lacking now, and certainly one of them is you! Are you prepared to shed your cares and escape right into a e-book — and a shower? You are? Good. Now you simply want one last item: your e-book! If you have already got one, nice. You’re all set! If not? Check out the newest summer time romance.
