    Top shelf of a walk in closet that was obscured from view from the door.

    Under a futon couch.

    On the roof of the house in the angled portion where 2 downward slopes come together.

    In the back of a truck in the back yard.

    In the middle of a grassy area behind our garage

    My parents used to wake me up at 4:30 in the morning to take a cold shower and then spend the next 4 hours doing religious worship. The only time I could read “Horrible secular books” like Mutiny on the Bounty, the three musketeers, and the man in the iron mask was late at night after everyone went to bed. I would stay up till 2:30-3:00am sometimes reading and I knew waking up at 4:30 was just not gonna happen.

    Yeah, I got in a bunch of trouble when I came out of my hiding spot the next morning, but sometimes it was worth it.
