I've read 31 novels since January, far more than I'd read in the last 30 years.

Easy: I read 50 pages every night when I go to bed, instead of screens.

I started with short novels, 150 pages or fewer (chatgpt gave me a reading list).

It quickly became a habit, and it's lovely.

Yea, I do 50 pages too when I read. But I don't read every day, even though that was my goal at the start of the year.

I have lots of things to do, and sometimes reading takes hours of my day that I need to give to other productive activities.

But I dedicate specific days go reading.

I've read 16 books thus far this year.

That's crazy speed!
