mamie Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 Good Afternoon, Where is the best unique or secluded place to read onboard Symphony of the Seas? I refuse to read in the library while onboard. Anybody have any recommendation on books that are related to cruising? I recommend The Stowaway by James S Murray and Darren Wearmouth. It's a murder mystery that may have taken place on Royal Carribean. lol jk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser4Life Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 Haven’t yet been on Symphony but I do the same! For my last cruise, I chose and recommend The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware. I will get a copy of the Stowaway for next month. Thanks for the tip! mamie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Va4fam Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 The library on Symphony was pretty empty last time I saw it. No books either. I found a couple of spots that were good for reading.....just to the left of El Loco Fresh is a covered area overlooking where people zip line and Boardwalk far below. At the far end of Central Park there are two alcoves with a "balcony" and two chairs above it. It's technically on Deck 9 but can be a quiet place to relax and read and enjoy Central Park from one floor above. (But don't tell anyone, I don't want to lose my favorite place). dr martini and mamie 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSeaCallsMyName Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 Another place is on Deck 5 behind the Aqua Theater. There will be joggers going by but it is so peaceful watching the wake. I agree with Central Park. Depending on the time of day but the Solarium can be a place to enjoy reading also. mamie and JimnKathy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FionaMG Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 For an indoor space, if the weather throws a hissy fit, I really like Dazzles. Lots of light and a nice view to look at over the top of your book. The only thing is that it's not always available as it's sometimes used for activities or functions so you need to check the compass. mamie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my favorite spots on the ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summer Bee Sweet Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 I read The Jetsetters because it’s about a women who won a cruise. Haven’t been on Symphony, but my favorite spot to read on Allure/Oasis/Harmony is either the balcony, solarium, or suite sun deck mamie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Last Lion Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 All righty then. Amazon just delivered The Stowaway based on what you guys said above. 10 days from now on the Odyssey. What is best upper deck reading spot on that ship? mamie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Solarium is a good option as well as the comfy, shaded, green and pink circular loungers on the running track. Two70 would be my favorite spot on Odyssey to read a book though! mamie and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptod Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 For a lighter mystery series, try the Patricia Fisher cruise ship mysteries by Steve Higgs. I like to sit in the loungers or Adirondack chairs between the mini golf and the ice cream dispenser (deck 15 portside aft). mamie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
