I was just looking at the poll results from the June 2009 "Do you read in the bathroom?" thread.

I'm definitely in the minority. So this discussion is for those who voted "Yes I do and I think it is normal."
If we were talking about reading in the tub, that might be an altogether different matter, but without the functioning whirlpool, I'll never know if it's a place I would enjoy reading. I look forward to the opportunity some day!
If I were into reading in the bathroom, it would probably be the same kind of stuff I like reading now, which would be mostly inspirational and some sci-fi for fun! How's that for a combination!
