Literature

I read ebooks almost exclusively (aside from graphic novels), and while I could take my kindle anywhere I feel most comfortable reading at home. I frequently read in bed after I wake up and before I sleep. Scrolling social media in bed is/was one of my bad habits; I see I'm not alone in picking up a book instead of giving my time to twitter/reddit/youtube.

I'm what I call a seasonal reader - I almost exclusively read during the warmer months on my cute little balcony. I don't know what it is, but that's just my perfect setting for reading. I just can't get myself to read more than a few pages when I'm indoors. A cold glass of water, the warm summer sun and a great book are what I need!

I find the best moments to be during breakfast with a cup or two of coffee, and before bed.

Where I live access is either through Kindle or Paperback, and my wife has rights over the bookshelf, so I stick to the kindle.

I read during my breaks or when i have nothing to do pretty much anywhere its why i personally prefer digital books over physical ones

I own a lot of books. There's a used book store near my house where I get them cheap. Every night before I go to sleep I try to read a chapter.

Honestly, this has been the best part about moving to a city where public transit is the norm. My commute is longer. It used to take me 15-20 minutes to drive somewhere, while now I generally budget an hour to get places. Still, most days I prefer the hour of relative calm where I can escape with a good book to the stress of being stalled thirty honking cars deep on the highway.

It’s definitely made me appreciate the escapism of books more, though! Specifically enjoying sci-fi and romance novels much more. A couple recent favorites were The Sparrow and Red White and Royal Blue

I go through phases where I'll read more than others. At the moment I'm getting 3-5 hours in a day counting commute, lunch breaks and before bed. I also enjoy heading out to the woods on the weekend and getting a couple hours in there.

In bed every night on my kindle. Amazon sucks but damn if it isn't convenient, at least it has kept my reading habit going for years.

Do audio books count? If so, on my commute.

My most common reading times are during my lunch break at work and before work if I wake up earlier than I need to be awake. But other than that, I just read in little bursts throughout the day when I have free time.

I prefer eBooks over physical books because they're easier to hold, have adjustable font sizes and themes, and I don't need a light to read. This is nice when reading before bed so that I can read my book in the dark, with light text on a black background. It's also nice that I can read practically anywhere since I almost always have my phone or some other device on me.

I don't play music when reading. I prefer a quiet environment.

Long train trips and subway rides are pretty ideal. Mainly since they get rid of that nagging sense of whatever other things I "could be doing" in those moments (going to the gym, practicing an instrument etc)

Dark mode on the phone before closing the lid

Music helps me keep doing something if I can't focus at the moment; when I can, I always prefer silence when reading.

I usually read before sleep and sometimes randomly during the day. Seasonally, I find myself reading more in periods of increased stress, e.g. exam sessions.

While I like the feel of paper books, they're rarely as practical as a mobile app (on Android, I'm using PocketBook), especially when you can make unlimited notes in your books and search them quickly.

I have a lot of physical books and e-books, and I switch between them. Mostly it's reading on my Kindle app on my phone or my Kindle Paperwhite, especially if I'm reading a library book or a KU/Prime Reading book to make sure the author is getting their percentage. I also have the Kobo app and have the new Kobo plus subscription.

I've already read 52 books this year, as I don't work outside the home, and it doesn't take ages to keep house. Before bed is a prime time to read, and whenever I can fit it in during the day. I've been making myself read instead of social media this year when I'm waiting in public.

I mostly read on my ereader before I sleep. How much I read depends on how tired I am or if its getting reeeaally late. I can't really read during the day because it always feels like there is too much going on even when I don't really do anything. Reading at night feels so much niver somehow.

@books I've been using @voice aloud reader to listen to my epub files and webserials when I commute back from work. Best app ever, highly recommend.

Sometimes in bed. Otherwise in the evening when I fancy some peace and quiet.

I mostly read on my e-reader as well, during the week lunch break at work, and I have set off an hour before going to sleep that I read, no other screens allowed for that time. Over the weekend I usually go find a nice place to sit and read for a bit.

On weekdays, mostly in bed before going to sleep.

On the weekends, I do longer bike rides and take my E-Reader. I listen to audiobooks while riding and then stop at a nice spot in the shade and just read for an hour or two before I move on to the next spot or ride back home.

I always do it at home. Usually on the couch or in bed.
