When do you find time to read?

I read an hour and fifteen minutes every morning Monday-Friday. It gets my head right for the work day.

Usually before I go to bed. When it's warmer out or rainy, I'll sit out on the balcony and read as well.

I need to get back into the habit of downloading audiobooks to listen to when I walk/workout.

I lay on the sofa and read while the wife watches TV after we put the kid to bed. Even reading just 30 minutes is a good way to wind down

Was just about to post this exact same thread.

Helps me wind down and I get fall asleep much quicker.

this is so true for me.

I usually read during the week after about 9pm. I did a little test a few weeks ago reading (paperbacks) one or two nights in a row and the next couple days watching TV or fiddling on my computer and not reading. I found the nights I read a book, which was about 30 minutes to an hour, I feel asleep much quicker and would only wake up once at the most. The nights I had technology in my face until bed, longer to fall asleep and I would wake up at least twice. I'm a believer

I try to watch a little tv with the wife but our tastes in shows are very different so I usually go to bed and read an hour or two. Until the book hits me in the forehead when I doze off!!

I live in DC so I have about 20 minutes a day on the metro. I also usually read at least 1 chapter in whatever book I'm into at night before bed.

Lately (and by lately I mean just last weekend) I have started reading a good bit on weekend mornings after I take the dog out. He hangs out on the couch, i turn on pandora classical music and just get lost for an hour or two. It is easier now that the soccer leagues are done for the season and there isn't any distraction to watch that

I read before bed 2-3 times per week, and audiobook when I'm in the car. Non Fiction only in the car.

This. Although a lot of times I'm so tired that I only make it through a few pages.
