How often do you read books YOU enjoy?
We know reading is great for our kids, and often read books to our children every day. But what about you, Mom and Dad? Reading is good for grown-ups too, and a great way to unwind and relax. How often do you make time to read books YOU enjoy?

I wish I read more often! I always end up in front of the TV during nap time because I feel like I deserve a break where I don't have to think. But if I can find a book I love, I have trouble ever putting it down, so I tend to read them fast!

I used to read for hours a day, and finish a couple of novels per week. Now I work way too much as I am close to buying a house. I hope to get back to reading soon - I miss it.
-
I used to be an avid reader too, but with toddlers and work it's really hard to find time. I am hoping my next vacation will present more down time to read.

I read every day, usually right before going to sleep. Even if I'm out late I read before bed because it relaxes me and has been a part of my routine for so long.
-
I'm the same, I read almost every night before bed. It's a good way to wind down and relax before falling asleep.

I almost never get to watch TV in my house (husband and his sports), so reading is my go-to during downtime.
-
I find it difficult to go to sleep without reading at least a few pages every night. Progress can be slow, but slow and steady is better than nothing!
-
Agreed, reading is a must for me before going to sleep, and would choose it over TV or any other winding down activity any day.

I guess I go through spurts where I'll read 5 or 6 books in a row and then go on hiatus for a couple of months. I do wish I made more time to read though.
