      Is there a reason why I suddenly prefer reading undercovers. Been doing it a few months now and much prefer it. Although you’re very right about the coke out when it’s too hot, then go back under five minutes later when you’re cold!

    growing up both my parents we're readers (still are) and they had a mini "library" in our house. most of the books we owned were science-fiction, horror and mystery books, basically books with too serious topics for me as a child to read. of course, we had almost every Stephen King book and I always begged my mom to let me read at least one of his books but she wouldn't let me because she thought it was too early for me (I was nine or ten). so smart ten year old me decided to read "it" every night while my parents were sleeping. I was reading under the covers every single night and I got caught when I had only 10 pages left. my parents weren't mad, they we're literally proud of me because I read that book at that age, and since then I am a huge Stephen King fan😂❤️

    Last time I read under the covers was in 2015, when I read the third book of Julie Kagawa The immortal rules series. I had to read under the covers because my mother was sleeping on the bed next to mine, we shared a room. I read it on my nook so no flashlight but she heard my crying a bit but I had already finished the book.

  • @bennie1223
    @bennie1223 4 года назад +2

    I would lie on my back, hold the flashlight between my chin and chest, and my book was propping up the blankets. That was generally enough to block most of the light and allowed me to quickly look like I was asleep if my parents walked by/opened my door.
    When I was young we had a reading challenge in school where if you read enough you would get these hockey collectable bookmark things. Our parents had to sign off on the reading logs. I hid my reading late at night but wasn't smart enough to lie on the log that I had read 3 hours 😆. After the first nights I just said it was a half hour but kept reading late.

    I read ebooks under the covers on my tablet a lot. When I was in the hostel with 3-7 other girls in the same room I did one of two things: 1. I sat with my legs hanging out of the second story window to access the outside lamps or 2. I would drag my blanket to the bathrooms and either read in the bath if the light were already on or in brightly coloured stalls which each had its own light and lock.

    You should try reading the Magisterium series by Holly Black and Cassandra Clare.
    I read them all last year, and there are quite a few parts that should change the 12- rating. It's just a bitttt dark and it's also like elemental magic (like in Avatar) meets Harry Potter while a war is going on.

    I sometimes used to read under the cover but not with flashlight, usually just by the light of my phone (yknow, the old siemenses and nokias, so not much light at alll). But I could hardly see so I didn't read for hours on end. Then I started climbing in my closet and reading there with closed doors, between my clothes. Not a walk-in closet. Rather like a single bookshelf without the shelves, and with doors. I could hardly fit in there but it was much better cause I could breathe and use proper flashlights.

    I did this occasionally as a kid, sometimes with books and other times watching anime on my Ipod touch. I mainly remember being so into Inuyasha that i when i had to get off the computer i would continue watching it under the covers. I usually could only do this in the winter when I had enough blankets on my bed to block out the light and I would put my clock radio under the blankets near the edge to make a small opening for air. It was a bonus that the clock radio had a light up display and i would sometimes stay up listening to my favorite stations as well. I never got caught but it wasn't very comfortable and I only did it if I just had to keep read or watching something.

    lol, my dad always said we can stay up as long as we're reading. Many nights in my youth spent reading late...I recommend it! There was NO pressure of being caught and therefore no stigma of "being naughty" staying up past bedtime. Like you weren't scared to sneak reading. It's great to teach kids reading at night isn't "wrong" and they shouldn't be afraid!

    Hey there, J! I was definitely the kid that stayed up all night reading. For a few years my parents got on me and would ground me because I was staying up all night, but then realized ( "why are we punishing her for READING?!?!?!) LMAO!!! But before that when I DID get away with it, I used either a clip on book light, or I would plug in my game boy to the wall adapter so it wouldn't drain the batteries, and use that. I also found that if your wrap an ice pack in damp paper towels and put that on your belly when you are laying down to read, it keeps you cool cuz it cools down your core.
