That's good advice, thank you!

I also keep a book by my bedside that I'm reading for fun. I also try to read it to wind down at the end of the day, but sometimes I find that I'm just too tired to focus on it. On the days that I am not, though, that is how I do most of the reading that's just for myself.

I've listened to audiobooks before, which has helped get through certain books, and even made some more enjoyable than their text versions. Listening to one throughout the day when you have a moment to spare sounds like a good idea, thank you. I usually stick to text versions but I will try to experiment with audiobooks more.

Yeah I feel much the same way. Being told to read something makes me less inclined to do it. Or enjoy it for that matter. If I get swamped in books I sometimes end up just looking at the sparknotes and call it a day.

I suppose that's just how things have to be sometimes.
