So I used to be a big reader but between college and this corona shit I can’t seem to pick up a book.

Any tips to get away from screens and read?

I would recommend you read a book on focus and time management, but you probably wouldn't take the time to finish it

Just pick it up and read, do not think

This. Be better. Stop wasting time theorizing about how to read, and do it.

I haven't read for the past two years because my alcoholism was reaching its peak, but I'm getting back into it now. I didn't have to force myself to read again, once I got sober and my mind was clear it just came naturally, because it's what I like doing.

Congrats, as a recovered alcoholic I know that feel. Fuck booze.
