Do you do your bed time stories in bed or else where ie. Lounge etc?

Reason I ask is we are having a real hard time getting DD to sleep at the moment, she has gone from falling asleep really easily to taking hours to settle.
We have started a more structured bedtime routine with stories, then milk but she is not falling asleep with or after her bottle like she used to and she wont settle well if we stay in the room, but if we leave she climbs out of bed.

I am wondering if reading her stories in bed is working her up, and that is the problem. Maybe we should read to her in the lounge room and then just into bed for sleep?

What works for you?
