This week's question is: Have you ever slept with a favorite, beloved book under your pillow, or cradled in your arms? (submitted by Maria @ A Night's Dream of Books)
MY ANSWER: Hmm...I don't think so. I think I was most afraid of the book pages being bent or the cover getting creased. Damage to a book while I was incapacitated would've led to heartbreak! Lol.
Though as a child? I can't say for sure. My memory doesn't extend that far I guess. But I guess it could've been because hardcovers hurt and again, not wanting to bend my paperbacks.
When I was a wee lass, I had this stunning illustrated Hans Christian Anderson fairy tale book, which I loved so much. I did carry it everywhere, and I feel like it may have spent some nights in my bed.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all... sleeping with a book under your pillow sounds really uncomfortable. Secondly, like you, I'd be too worried that I would damage the book in my sleep!

Books are not the best sleeping companion. The edges!
ReplyDeleteI regularly fall asleep cuddling my current read or my Kindle...
