[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When my kids were young, I gave up reading books for personal pleasure.  I tend to get completely lost in books, and while it’s okay to forget to feed myself, I couldn’t do that to kids, much less miss a need for help.  I read a lot to them through the years, and as they grew more self-sufficient, I started reading again. They’re grown now, and I’m back to reading voraciously.  The vast majority of what I read is pure fluff that much of DCUM would probably sneer at, but I don’t care. [/quote]

This is similar to my situation, except in addition to being a mom, I also had to spend my time reading for professional purposes versus pleasure.  When I was able to get back to reading for pleasure, it was such a joy!  I did not realize how much I had missed it.  I listen to audiobooks (free via Overdrive + library card) and also read "book books" (physical books), mostly purposed for $1 or less at a local friends of the library book sale or checked out for free from the library.

I don't typically enjoy literature/literary fiction, and that's okay.  [/quote]
