I used to make it a Sunday ritual, but now that I have and only read my kindle, those days are gone.

I would like to, but I'm afraid I would end up dropping the book.

No, it would get the books wet and it would be uncomfortable in such a wet environment. :)

I love reading, but I can't in the bath as I don't want to wet the book.

Yes, of course :-) Reading in a relaxing bath is one of my favorite pastimes.

Like many others here I love relaxing in the bath with a good book. Mostly I don't worry about the humidity, or dropping the book in the water - I mean books are meant to be used aren't they?
But I do make exceptions for treasured volumes, and hard to find books that wouldn't be so easily replaceable.

Yes I have, even though I know it isn't good for the book. As a busy single mom, this is a simple way to relax and journey to another place.

When I was younger I used to do this, because I didn't feel any time pressure to get out of the bath. Now not only do I not do it anymore, I can't even remember the last time I had a bath.
