I have been a voracious reader all my life. People who know me know that I always have a book on me. I take one to work, I have one in the car if I'm travelling, I take one into appointments with me. A waiting room is not the perfect environment for serious book reading I grant you. So what is?
I have a wonderfully comfy chair in my family room that I love to curl up in, it's a perfect size to tuck my feet under me and get truly comfortable. Right next to my chair is a pair of fantastic table lamps that I chose specifically with reading in mind and in a design and style that attracts me and goes well with my decor. Good lighting is definitely important - - especially for my nearsighted self!
I also like being in my well worn sweats and yoga pants so that I'm as relaxed as possible. Throw in a good cup of tea or cocoa and a scented candle . . . ah! Heaven! Very easy to get lost in a good book.
With this is mind, CSN Stores has very graciously offered up to one of my readers a $50 gift card to be used toward purchase on any of their incredible products - - a bookshelf, table lamp, tea set or any of number of fantastic goods! Trust me when I tell you this is a wonderful opportunity.
So what do you need to do to enter, you may ask? Simple! Leave me a comment, letting me know what reading necessities you have, if any. Your comment is worth one entry. I am also offering additional entries for this giveaway.
