Meh. I'll continue my shallow reading. I spend a lot of time already reading research articles and other stuff for work being a college professor.

So I like to read some disposable fiction (fantasy etc.) when I'm doing leisure reading--which is just reading before sleeping a few days a week. I mix in some classic literature, non-fiction etc. every now and then.

But usually after a long day of work I just want to read something that doesn't require too much thought/effort on my part to veg out and relax before sleeping.

I'll also admit that leisure reading has never been a huge hobby of mine. Many things like movies, TV, sports, video games, exercise, hiking, fishing etc. have always been things I'd rather do that sit down and read.
