message 101: by Cecilia (new)

Cecilia (cecilia-reads) All the time!


message 102: by Erika (new)

Erika (erikamiller) | 8 comments Yes! I feel like there is never enough time to read, there is not enough hours in a day! :/


message 103: by Eva (new)

Eva (iryska) I am feeling same. life get busy now :( this thought also follows 'what if I'll live not long enough to read all those great books?!


message 104: by rai ♡ (new)

rai ♡ | 1032 comments I do! School takes up most of my reading time, even on the weekend. By the time I want to read, I don't get to read much because I'm exhausted from doing homework.


message 105: by Melissa (new)

Melissa (melissa_94) | 54 comments Yep! I never have time to read now! I've taken up a two year course at college and the assignments take up all my time. I'd read before i go to bed, but by the time the end of the day comes, im too tired to read. I wait until the holidays and breaks before i can read a long book. For now its just the short books that im not really interested in :)


message 106: by Julie (new)

Julie Reece Yes. I used to think I read fast until I joined Good Reads. Some of you are amazing. Now I know I read at a slower pace and with work and school, it feels like it takes me forever :( I need a reading clone!


message 107: by Ikao (new)

Ikao (ikaoduck) Yes, I only read in night on weekdays. And because I share the same bedroom with my sistet and she sleeps so early and turns off the light, I don't have much time to read. I also scare go outside my room alone in midnight.


message 108: by Katherine (new)

Katherine Yes. I used to have time during shows, so I could sit while I waited for my next cue to read, but it's not happening this show. It's kind of depressing. On the other side of that coin though, it's definitely fun to be on Props, which is why I have so little time to read backstage.

Instead, I read on my walk to the theatre, even though it's really cold out right now. :/

S.B. Roozenboom | 7 comments I've been in the same boat for about 2 years now. Ever since I met my boyfriend and got my retail job it's just been nonstop go go go. Plus i got a publisher for my 2nd YA book and that also took up a lot of my time writing and editing. Sometimes I really miss the days that I could just sit down in the basket chair by my window and read all day!


message 110: by Arely (new)

Arely | 2 comments I always think that i don't have enough time to read. I wish i had some more time, but sometimes school and homework get in the way. If i read at night i regret it in the morning because i'm so tired and i can't even open my eyes.


message 111: by rai ♡ (new)

rai ♡ | 1032 comments Yes! I hate it! I wish I could just curl up somewhere and just read for hours, but I end up carrying a book with me everywhere in case I have time to read (which I never do).


message 112: by Leanne (new)

Leanne (leannethegreat) Something that I do, is that every night before I go to bed is I read atleast a few pages. A lot of time, everythings a rush during the day and theres barely time to take a deep breath let alone read a book. So, I read right before I go to bed, for just a few minutes.


message 113: by Komal (new)

Komal (k0k0) I feel that 24/7!
Medicine is a tough nut and to bring reading into my life's sphere, I had to get rid of all other hobbies. And now I need to juggle between sleep, studies and university. Sleep gets the cut off, usually but I'm not complaining as long as I get some fills of books every now and then.


message 114: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra Giovanni | 297 comments I always feel I don't have time!!! Working full time, college part time plus, writing and my marketing company! I still try to, though! How do you guys fit it in?


message 115: by Eager (new)

Eager Reader (TheEagerReader) | 38 comments Yes! I'm a busy mom with very young kids and making the time to read is hard - I'm usually up late at night reading after my house is asleep!


message 116: by Vishal (new)

Vishal Beotra (vbeotra) I feel like that ALL the time. My college sucks out all the time, thankfully I read during the commute to college. I spend three hours a day in commuting :\
But there are so many books and so little time.


message 117: by Keira (new)

Keira Yes! I make time to read at night and set mini goals... like 5 chapters a night. I always end up falling asleep! I'D RATHER BE READING THAN SLEEPING! :(


message 118: by Beth (new)

Beth Michele (bethmichelewriter) | 25 comments YES...all the time. I no longer watch TV because I'm too focused on reading...I get so much more out of a book.


message 119: by -RininTa- (new)

-RininTa- (rinz) | 826 comments YES!! I always feel like this. I have a lot of books that I haven't read even my currently-read book isn't finish yet. I wish there is 25 or 30 hours in a day.


message 120: by Beth (new)

Beth Michele (bethmichelewriter) | 25 comments I need a cave to escape to.... :)


message 121: by River (new)

River (respire) Sometimes I read about three to four books a week (depends on how many pages and if I like the story) and sometimes I'm still reading a book after a week. Mostly the last one is when I'm really busy with school (my exams are coming up pretty soon, Ugh!)

But when I'm really busy with school or anything else I always try to read atleast one hour before I go to bed (though mostly it becomes two or three hours lol).


message 122: by Venise (new)

Venise Webb (vwebb) | 6 comments All the time! Since joining Goodreads I've found so many good books that I want to read and I want to read them all, right now. But the problem is that I should be writing, I know this. So, I have to ration my reading time with my writing time.


message 123: by Skaistė (new)

Skaistė Girtienė Yes. Quite often. There are so many interesting books and if I could I guess I would be reading all the time :) But there is work, studies and all the other various things to do.


message 124: by [deleted user] (new)

I never have enough time to read. :( it's reallllly annoying. I'm doing a degree which has at least six required academic articles that I have to read each week. Once I've finished them I just want to never read a thing again so I go watch tv or something. That's why I joined this group, to try and inspir myself back into having time for it....haha :/


message 125: by Ravencrantz (new)

Ravencrantz Currently, I have nothing to do with my life so all I do is read. My problem is that I have trouble finding the attention span to read. I tend to have trouble focusing on words sometimes. It does get quite annoying.


message 126: by Melissa (new)

Melissa (melissa_94) | 54 comments I never have time to read now as i spend so much time studying and doing assignments. But when i do get to read, it takes me longer to read as im not interested in the book :(


message 127: by Özgecan (new)

Özgecan (ozgecan) | 133 comments I feel that way all the time! Especially for the past few weeks because I just finished my mid-term exams and I can say I'd never been busy like this before. But it is generall. There is never enough time to read! And right know I really need to forget all about schooll and lose myself in a good book.


message 128: by Kaitlyn (new)

Kaitlyn | 235 comments All the time!!!


message 129: by Jaz (new)

Jaz Mirza (sammoonlight20) | 10 comments Same! I never find time to read. I'm graduating this year and it's been hectic! applying for colleges, getting scholarships, getting good grades and all that fun stuff. I have left my responsibilities and read 14 books this year! hehe.
