How often do you read?

[BravoBravo]

Do you like to read every change you get? Once a day? Just before bed? Weekends only?

[BravoBravo]

I read when DS is napping or sleeping, so everyday for varying amounts. Although it will be changing that DH is going to be returning from deployment. I will have to pay him some attention.

[msmerymac]

At the gym, on the treadmill.

During lunch at work.

Before bed. It would be so luxurious to go to bed like 1.5 hours before I need to go to sleep and just hang out with the cats and read. That's my idea of a good time. But that rarely happens!

[mollymoe]

I read a lot on my phone now which I didn't think I would do. It has been slow at work so I'll pull up the Kindle app. It's easier to hide than a book and looking at your phone is so common at my office that if I get caught, no one really knows what I'm doing.

[dorothyinAus]

When I was working, I read on the ride to work and home, as well as at lunch, then often in the evenings. Now that I'm reluctantly unemployed, I find I am reading less and less. I am hoping the Wuthering Heights discussion will re-ignite my reading.

[5kcandlesinthewind]

I take the bus to work, so I typically read on my commute. I'll also read during lunch if I don't meet up with friends/co-workers. Otherwise, occasionally during the week when I'm home if there's nothing interesting on tv, and over the weekends if we're just hanging at home.

Mostly in the evening, just before bed.

[charlatti]

Every evening for at least an hour. Once DD is in bed, I usually knit for an hour while watching TV and then read for another hour or so. (Yes, my life is that exciting.) I always read in bed or I can't fall asleep. Sometimes it's just a handful of pages, but usually another half hour or so. I'm a SAHM, so I read a little during DD's afternoon rest time and once in a while in the late afternoon I'll read outside while she plays with the neighbor girls.

[lemondrop]

I read every chance I get, but sometimes that isn't often enough.

I regularly read 30 minutes during lunch and before bed.

One more reason I need a smart phone.

I have some computer downtime when a program I use loads, so I'll grab a book then if there's nothing else I can do. I've been reading real books lately and it's a lot harder than my Nook.

[whitepicketfence]

I try to read every afternoon while the girls are napping (if they happen to nap at the same time) and every night before bed.

[angnshaun]

I take the train to work... i do most of my reading then.... i read at my lunch hour and then before bed

[SallyJ]

I read on the train to and from work (~30 min each way), at lunch time (~30 min), and while the kids watch their show before bed (about 30 min). So roughly 2 hours a day?

[bookbunny]

I read at home when I'm taking breaks from homework, during breaks at school, when I arrive early somewhere, when I'm eating dinner alone (My H has a crazy work schedule), while my H is watching a "Guy Movie", before bed, and any other chance I can sneak in

I set my mom up on her iPhone with my Nook account on the Nook app. She reads all the time at work now. She can even check out books from the local library on her phone and read them (once I walked her through it). :Y:

[sparrowsong]

I have quite a bit of down time at work actually. So I read books and watch Netflix there. I also read before bed sometimes.

[Dusky]

My reading habits tend to vary. Sometimes I'll not read anything for a while and then read all day. Other times I'll read for 20 minutes or so on a daily basis.

The only consist reading habits I have revolve around work. I almost always listen to an audiobook during my commute, and I always read during my lunch/breaks.

[amyb2332]

I listen to audiobooks on my way to and from work (my commute is about 45 minutes) and I try to read a bit every night before bed.

[PinkSquirrel]

It depends on the week. Lately reading has been cutting into my knitting time, but the last week or so I've been knitting more.

[dvmmama]

Everyday. Usually it's just before bed but if I get really interested in a book it will be during all waking hours I can manage without neglecting my daughter.

[ChillyMcFreeze]

I read something everyday, but I can go a few days without reading a book. I'll read an article at a time in a magazine, and I'll pick up a cook book while I watch TV. When I put my mind to reading a novel, though, it can be an all-day affair.

[grover]

Now that my grad class is over and my job is just about over for the summer, I'm reading a lot more. I also read using my kindle every night before bed.

[sweetc80]

I read every chance I get. I have the Nook for PC and Adobe Digital, for library books, on my work computer to read at lunch. I read in the evenings and before bed. Some days I'm so busy at work and there is a game on in the evening, so I don't get to read until before bed. It is very rare that a day goes by where I don't read at least a few pages.

[ThirdandLong]

I work full time, so reading is in the evenings mostly. I'll read while I rock my daughter to sleep. Sometimes I'll read for a bit before I fall asleep.

[polarbearfans]

I used to read a lot more. If I am really into a book I devour it. So daily if I'm actively in a book but in reality a few times a month.

[chicacocodrilo]

I commute by Metro, so I read there a lot--mostly afternoons, though, since the husband and I go commute in together. We both usually spend some time reading before bed.

[BlackCanary]

I read at least once a day, right before bed. Sometimes I will read during the day, but that doesn't happen a lot.

[charminglife]

I take the commuter train to work every day (55 minutes each way) and I read then, and I'd say I read before bed 2 - 3 nights a week for about half an hour.

[mrshandy]

On my commute since I take the bus and Metro

During my lunch break

Sometimes in the evenings, but I usually run so that takes up a good portion of my evenings

If I have a down moment on the weekends during nap time

[briedrew]

Every day! I listen to books during my commute, makes the drive feel faster. I read over my lunch break at work, although usually it's for class. I try to read at least one chapter in a book before bed every night as well- it helps me fall asleep.
