My Paragraph

 Being Nikkie by Meg Cabot

Waves are crashing agasinst the backs of my legs, and the water, which this afternoon had been a warm turquoise, has turned an icy black. The rocks to which I'm clinging are cutting into my fingertips and the bottoms of my feet. They're slippery as a glacier, but I can't let go or I'll fall into that frigid water, in which--no exaggeration--sharks are swarming beneath me.

Challenge 15

An uncomfy challenge! by bits and bites

 Experience reading somewhere you never read before

 

I don't think there is a place I would be uncomfortable reading. I've read in the bath, outside, in a restaurant, at a party, when family was visiting, I even read one time while out hunting. 

I just thought of something. I have not read in the shower. I already read in the bath today. But, I plan on reading tomorrow in the shower on my daughters ipod. I may limit it to a page. I don't want to waste water.
