I read in public transport if I'm awake enough. If not, I listen to music. Most of the time I also read about an hour before I go to sleep.

In total, I think I read books about/only around 10 hours a week, 15 at most. At my reading speed, it means an average 400 page novel will take me a bit less than a week to complete.

I read on my way to work waiting for the trains and on the train. Then I read during my lunch break, again on my way home. Then after I finish visiting my regular web sites, I start reading again til I go to bed. I read even more during the weekend.

I read mostly in the early morning between 5AM -7AM and later in the evening around 8PM-12AM. Where I read is either in bed, at my desk or on the sofa.

Does anyone read while sitting in their car?
Does skiving off while I'm supposed to be working count?

Sometimes I read when I sleep. but it is generally something bizarre my brain has invented for this purpose. I only know this because I have been wakened from dreams where I was reading a book and wanting to go back to sleep to finish reading it.

I will now It's a perfect cure for feeling guilty about staying home to read, on nice day.

my mind goes nuts as well if I'm not reading a Ebook or on my computer, tablet or SPhone.. I know.. I'm a WackO.. I use to be a big sports TV fan.. but something happened and I'm not anymore.. in Pro Sports .. too many Thugs.. I lost my respect for Pro Sports. so now I read instead of watching Pro Sports.. Pro Sports needs to wake UP.. I read at home on the couch, in bed, at my office, in my car and anywhere.. addictied to reading .. I have been for 55 yrs.. hard habit to break..

This, more or less. While I never knit, garden or drive (I do eat though), I always have a reading device on me or with me.

I read at work, during quiet times. There are usually somewhere between several and many of those, so at times I can get through a couple of hundred pages. Since I work long shifts I have lots of time off and when I'm off I'm rarely busy, so at times I read the whole day, for several days in a row. Otherwise I read in cafés, in waiting rooms, while waiting for the bus, while sitting on a bench in the park or a log in the woods.....

I pretty much read whenever I'm not doing anything else and have always done so.

Wow, wow.. so basically you sleep around 5 hours a day. That's... marvelous!
I tried to do the same but failed every single time.

Sounds like something's wrong there. Since you have Miss Scarlet and rope, I would think reading would be one of the last things you'd want to be doing.
