Anyone else love reading but it genuinely takes up too much energy so you rarely do it?

I'm kind of a retard and I listen to audiobooks a lot at work when I'm bored. When I read, I have to highlight and annotate like a motherfucker to retain the information. Thanks school for making my brain filter anything I read as useless information.

You have to set a lot of time off to yourself if you're reading a big novel like Tolstoy. Otherwise, short stories and classic poetry are the way to go.

I haven't read a thing in about 5 years.
Used to read every day, a couple of books a week, and have a library of a couple of thousand books. An entire room of my house.

I'm in a habit of reading 30-40 min before bed. Best reading habit I have found.

Not quite, much like with everything else I have a short attention span these days and get distracted by other stuff, I also need to be in the right head space or I just don’t take anything in and find myself rereading the same lines over and over until I’m satisfied it sticks.
