Question:

What's the best chair for reading?

I need a chair or something other in my bedroom to read in.. I've been reading in my bed recently but after reading for 8 hours a day it gives me SERIOUS back problems.

Answer:

The best chair is your preference so try going to a different stores and test out their chairs. The most comfortable one should do.
Gliders tend to be fairley narrow, I would recommended a lazy-boy, one that reclines. If you are into reading, you are also into comfort. A lazy-boy can be carried up by only two people.
I read in a butterfly chair. It's extremely comfortable, and perfect to read in. It also works to read in one with a foot stool. And you can put your book on one of the side 'wings'.
I read on a sofa couch but my back is to the arm rest and my knees are up. That's comfy.
A nice plumpy chair that has reclines the feet up works best for me. If you don't have something like that I would suggest sitting at a table (kitchen counter, dining room table). To make the chair more comfortable use 2 pillows, one to put against the back, one to sit on. If you're sitting up at a counter you might want to put a stepper on the ground under your feet so they don't just dangle. If you want when sitting at a regular table you can either just have your feet on the ground, or what I sometimes like to do is pull up another chair to lay my legs out on.
