That's an interesting approach. I did try reading on my lunch break a couple times, but effectively I would only have like 15 minutes to read (and that's if I skip lunch!). And if I have to take notes as well, then I'd probably only read for 10 minutes. At that rate it would take me months just to finish one book, lol. How do you do it?

I tend to read for an hour before bed, and I haven't really been taking notes. I tried a couple times, but it's not something that comes naturally to me. I went through school and college without ever taking notes either (in my defence, I still had good grades!).

I have an hour for lunch, so I eat in 5-10 minutes and spend the rest reading, haha. Won't work for everyone, and sometimes I do only get 15 or so good minutes in. Alternatively, study in the morning, pleasure reading at night still, so I'd read after gym in the morning.
