Reading in Bed │ A Librocubicularist

A definition of the word Librocubicularist
After coming across this image and description of what I do on the regular, I think I've finally (after saying it a dozen times) gotten the hang of the word.

Librocubicularist. A person who reads in bed.

I've never actually heard this descriptive word before, though I'm familiar with its action like I know the back of my hand. Have you used this word before?

And get this: the word had seven syllables. The same as if you said, "a person who reads in bed."

And if both have seven syllables, neither one is shorter to say. So, it’s your choice.

Both are what many do and love to do.

It's up to you to say what you want to say. Maybe it's just a fancy word - which it is. But, it's also a literal Latin translation for "reading in bed" in a more succinct form.

I like the sound of librocubicularist. It's slow living in its ultimate form.

Happy reading.

    1. I am the same! Always give the artist credit. Unfortunately, I found this on Pinterest without an artist to credit. Frustrating because the artist deserves the credit and I'd love to know who it was!
