Myself personally I get most of my reading done on my 45 minute commute to work on the bus/train. I also enjoy reading in the mornings on weekends and occasionally in the evening on weekdays.

Another thing I like to do with my wife on the weekend is pick up some lunch and coffee and then read at the park.

Generally carrying my ereader around constantly means that idle moments in public end up getting used to advance in the book I’m reading, instead of purposelessly checking my phone or using social media. I think I read a post on here in another thread where someone else has had the same experience.

What about y’all? Any rituals? Do you play music?

    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.
