How much time do you spend reading on a daily basis? Do you think you spend too much time reading or not enough?

I wasn't thinking about that when I started this thread.
I'm talking about reading for the fun of it.
I don't read as much as I used to. I'm not into novels. & personally, I rather watch than to read it. I get a better feel of the characters actually seeing them.
I tend to read more in the summer when I can be outside on my swing.

I read a lot of news articles and blog posts on current events, local news, technology, entertainment, and other topics. I think I spend 2 to 3 hours reading articles which interest me.
Not as much as I should but if I need to I will right away but might get burnt out reading too much.
I like reading outside too. There's nothing better than reading in my hammock while camping or reading in nature after I kayak somewhere.
or reading in my grandfather's backyard among the hummingbirds.
If there is a movie based on a book, I enjoy watching it. You did get a better feel for the characters. It allows me to visualize it more.
I believe I do not read enough.
I have a swing on my front porch. It's usually too hot during the summer and too cold during the winter. I can only sit on the swing when it's decent enough to sit outside.
If we counted actual reading, as in, on message boards and the internet in general, that'd change the time a substantial amount. Otherwise, I read a lot of stories that are submitted to my company and try to etch out about an hour of reading a day for pleasure, if possible. I think that's about a sweet spot for me, personally.
Way too much. More than half my life....or may be even more than that.
I read like....all the time (_ _)/

I wish I could read all the time. That would be Heaven for me......
I'm sure you get sick of it/or just bored.
Would you get bored or sick of it if you could watch anime all day or play video games all day?
I would, which is kind of why I'm glad I didn't take months off during covid.
Same here. I might have ran out of books to read if I had months off during Covid. Maybe......maybe not.
Much less than I should. I keep trying to get back into books, but so far little luck.
How about scheduling it for weekends? That is a great way to go about reading books too. Maybe pick 2 weekends out of every month just to read.
We are in the same shoes mate. Wish I still had my flair like in did in the university days.
Life challenges can make one not have time to read again.
