After thinking about it for way too long I bought an ebook. An ebook is amazing when reading books with lots of words to look up. It's so ridiculously easy to lookup the definition of a word. The other benefit is that it can quickly confirm if a word is made-up (no definition).

The other thing I wanted to mention is that it's okay to go through times (days or even weeks) when you don't want to read. Just don't read, and do t feel bad about it.

Last thing: I usually try to finish each book I start. But I found that if I don't feel like reading, it is often because I am no longer interested in the book. I am happiest reading when I quit those books and find another one to read that I'm more engaged with.
