GENERAL BOOK/READING THREAD 
How do you find time to read lotsa books ? Anytips +input. I dont really wanna cut into my little game time and time for painting. But I also wanna read more books. Atm I have read 5 to 6 short 300-400 page books a year which is good if I compare it to the fact that I read 0 books in some years before.
I "think" I could up my yearly books to 7-8 but 10 would prolly feel like im pushing it (if we talk about 300-400page books on average)
Gimme your thoughts or praise (for being a good boi who reads books) I know its not theory just ficiton but I just really started to read again in the last 3 years so Im easing myself into it by reading 40k novels. Its chill and mostly simple I also read some Brandon Sanderson fantasy novels. I know not high art but you gotta start somewhere.
EDIT : Good thread. Thanks for everyone who participated
routine in practice and variety in style seem helpful, at least to me.
my routine is i generally read a good bit each night and always read a little bit during lunch at work. epub or pdfs of books are especially helpful for the latter, as i can sneak in a little extra via a browser plug-in, but i strongly prefer paper because i like to pencil in notes while i read. that also helps me retain more of what i'm reading, which feels good, and feeling good reinforces the habit. also, if i'm especially tired and can't pick up a book before bed, i can at least look forward to reading a little tomorrow at lunch.
for variety, i try to keep four books going at once, one larger book (300+), one small (less than 200), and two mid-sized. i've found that reading smaller books helps provide a sense of accomplishment and progress to reinforce the habit without feeling mired down in larger ones (again, feelin' good!). i also pick books from different genres (nonfiction/theory, fiction, poetry), regions, and time periods in case one of the books i'm reading is emotionally taxing or just rigorously dense.
