I don't know why I didn't have the chance to read more books over the last couple of years since I graduated college -- oh, I read them every chance I got, often in bursts -- reading a book or two or three a night, then reading nothing for the next 6 months or longer. I think part of it might have been due to evercrack, and the other part due to the fact that I read almost constantly at work the happenings of the internet. When I went home, I jus wanted to zone out. Now that I have a 45 minute commute (each way) I zone out on that instead and feel the need to 'feed my brain'. Anyway, last night I finished below the line. I had to skip one of the stories because it was just too disjointed to follow (much like Time's Arrow). I hope to finish one more book tonight. I'm running out of time, as school begins on Thursday, and I suspect my reading time will diminish greatly after that.
Maybe you can try reading a few pages or a chapter a day before you go to sleep.
