Are you reading more or fewer books than 5 years ago?

Post by Nathan Bransford » April 30th, 2017, 3:54 pm

There are now so many distractions out there. Our cell phones are veritable distraction devices, and they're only getting better.

Are you reading more or fewer books than you were five years ago?

Personally, I'm sad to admit that it's fewer. But I'm trying to change that. What about you?

I'm reading more books than five years ago, I think. And my online book buying seems to have added to more than replaced my in-store purchases. Every room in my house is a library now, including the bathrooms and hallway! I read books slowly but quite a few at a time.

I think less, just too busy nowadays.

I read more now than I did five years ago, but my youngest child is about to turn 7, and I read almost not at all when I had babies in the house. I would sit down to read and just fall asleep. I love that I get to read more now. I finish about a book a week.

Reading books is addictive, the more you read the more you crave for more,
In short I read more books than i used to before.

unfortunately, I'm reading fewer books than 5 years ago me. and that's cause I graduate from university and I'm an employee for 2 years. I don't get the time to read books anymore.

I'm reading fewer books and it's disappointing. I hope to enter college and start reading more again.
