Do you not have much free time after work? Or do you just feel like there are better things to occupy it, other than reading?

I always read after a work and manage more than 2 books a month but, then again, I don't think I've seen a movie or played a video game in at least half a year, so I'm sacrificing on that front.

I'd wager family responsibilities (young kids, sick family, partner who doesn't value reading alone for 1hr as much as you do, etc.)
Yeah, I'm lucky to have no kids and a bookworm partner so I don't get roped into playing with toys or watching reality TV. The other option in such cases would probably be their commute to work, if they have one. Audiobooks can be a real savior there.
