Every single day. Reading is brain food.

I listen to audio books at work and on my commute. I average about 25hrs a week.

Used to do several books each week. I lost interest for several years. Just got back into in with a new Kindle Paperwhite. I have knocked out 8 books in the past two months. Sitting in a hammock in Rocky Mountain National Park, looking at the trees and mountains while re-reading The Hobbit, was great.

I listen to audiobooks on my walks. Average about 45 hrs listening time a month. Quite enjoy it.

Gets me through 3-4 books a month

I don’t read as often as I would like but I did read a book while on vacation last week. Generally, I fall asleep too quickly after laying in bed to read on a consistent basis. I probably read like 6 books a year, give or take. Before I had kids I’d read much more often.

I read my Bible every night. For pleasure reading at the moment, a lengthy biography of Napoleon.

Just about everyday. I am currently reading a book titled 'Fifty-Fifty". Its criminal fiction. I have to keep my mind occupied at all times. I can't just relax and do nothing so anytime I have a few mins I read. It might be 2 pages at a time or 15 pages at a time. I read my books on my phone so that I have access to it most of the time.

I read every day. Usually at least an hour at night. I always have a book with me and I read whenever I have down time running errands or whatever.

What's up NoHo? I remember you mentioning you read a good bit. I think we talked about a John Grisham book once.

How often do you read?


Fairly often, a little here, and a little there. If I read for too long, I'll fall asleep.

quote:

When do you find time to read?


Mostly in the evenings. I've read more books in the last 4 to 5 years than I did in my first 45 years.

I like self-help books, and anything to do with communication, relationships, and marriage/divorce. These topics hold my interest.

I also like to keep up with technology, but do so mainly by reading technology blogs or websites.

I have lots of books but no time to read. Need to make an honest effort to stay off of here and YT for an hr every night to read.
