I've always been of the opinion that one should have what I call Lavvy Books. These are books left by the bog, not just in case of emergency, but for that ocasion when you can just pick something up, peruse a quick chapter or a few facts and then put it down. Next time you either carry on from where you left it or randomly open and see what's there.
The best books for this type of reading ..... Cartoon's such as Giles... fatual bocks such as the Guinness Book of Records and my personal favourites short funny anecdotes.

Why..... because there's nowhere to put books near the Lav... and if I did the kids would just ....well do what kids do. ::)
