I read because it's nice to be in a differently reality for a bit. I generally do fantasy, because the world's immersive and it's fun to get lost in. My buddy said he's reading The Passenger by Cormac McCarthy, and I had it in the list, and it's definitely not the escape that The Stormlight Archive was.

As with others here, I also do the audiobook thing. Reading is reserved for the time before bed, 15-30m or so, and audiobooks are for when you're engaged in something that doesn't require your full attention, like operating heavy machinery or power tools.
