I wonder what everyone’s reading habits looks like. When, where, how (book/device), what mindset/strategy you’re reading with, how much time, etc.

For example me, Redglare: I read on the train when I have shifts at part time work, or right before going to bed (which is not good for sleep) or after waking up (which is not good for starting my school work productivity for the day). I’m not great at dedicating time of my day only for reading, it’s an effort. I usually read on my phone (bookwalker) and sometimes on pc (also bookwalker). I think I’ve always have had the mindset of looking up every word I’m unsure about even if I’m β€œsupposed” to know it already, whether it be reading/meaning or that the context doesn’t make sense. There are so many words that have different or unexpected meanings just because the context is different. I find that very interesting.

Sometimes I practice reading as fast as I can by scanning the lines and sometimes I go yukkuri by reading out-loud (good for keeping focus and making sure I look up readings of words).
