I was looking over the post of what you read in April. How do you all find o much time to read? I'm impressed and semi jealous.

Most of us read as much or as little as we do because of how we prioritize reading. In January - March I am extremely busy with work, and therefore sleep takes priority over reading. Later in the year, not so much.
I think too if you're interested in adding to your reading time, take advantage of 10 minutes here and 15 minutes there. Many of people don't read because if they don't have 30 minutes or an hour to devote to it its not worth it. But I try to take advantage of every opportunity. Audibooks in the car, and kindle or nook books on my phone so if I'm somewhere waiting on someone or there's just some short down time I can get 10 minutes or so in here and there. It makes a huge difference.

Reading is important to me, so I make the time!

I always try to keep in mind that comparing myself to others isn't necessary. Honestly, I read quite a few books this month, but they have been easy, quick reads. Nothing I would brag about.
When I was younger, my idea of time for reading was at least an hour. Now that I work full-time and have two kids, I consider time for reading to be any amount. I might only get 15 minutes in one day, but it's better than nothing.
I would love to read a ton of books, but for me it's quality over quantity. I'd rather take my time and enjoy books than fly through them just to hit a number.
