Media materiality matters for how reading happens, through digital technologies, print, audio, and so on. However, equally important for our understanding of what happens in each individual reader's experience is the place and situation in which the reading occurs. The surroundings, what the reader is doing while reading, what occurs around them are part of what we discuss in this chapter as situated reading. Our interests go beyond the reading mediation itself to address how the reader's sensing body experiences each reading instance. We seek to decouple the naturalized link between our understanding of what constitutes reading, the medium, and the situations in which reading occurs.
