How to Read More Books

Recently "Retreat by Random House" posted an article including tips on How to Read MORE Books (http://www.retreatbyrandomhouse.ca/2013/02/how-read-more-books) on which I posted a couple comments and had a laugh because I received an error message saying "You are posting comments too quickly.  Slow down."  Sorry, but I get a little enthusiastic when considering ways to fit more reading in my day.

Do you have some tips on fitting in more reading?  I keep a couple books here and there in the house to pick up as the mood and opportunity strikes.  I always take one to work to read during my breaks and usually have one in my purse or take one along should I be waiting for an appointment.  What more can I do?  What are your tips?  Do share.

  1. I do most of my reading in bed before I go to sleep and sometimes when I am taking a nap after lunch.
    In summer I prefer sitting in a chair in our garden or maybee on the beach.
    So where ever you go take the books with you is my advice.

  2. I read every night before bed and then I also keep books all over the place in case I have time to read at other times. I especially like having a book in the car with me. While I am waiting for someone to meet me I can read quite a bit. :)

  3. I agree....always have a book with you,just in case you find yourself with a few minutes to read. Belonging to a book club ensures that I will read at least one book a month,but I usually read several in that time.

    However,the best way I know to read more books is to turn off the TV. I limit my television time to an hour a day,and then when my program is over,I turn it off and pick up my book.

    1. Ah, yes. I really should shut off the tv more often and read instead. Lately I've been stuck on The Big Bang Theory on DVD, having watched the first three seasons in the last couple weeks and am now on the fourth season. But, I should take your advice and read instead. Really, I should.
