Because you’re reading less than you used to

You used to read a book a week.

You’d have two or three on the go at any one time.

It used to be important to you.

The non-fiction would expose you to new ideas.

The fiction would expose you to new perspectives.

It used to be non-negotiable.

How could you learn to live if you only ever saw life through your own eyes?

Now you read a book a month, if that.

Some months, you don’t read at all.

You don’t have the time.

Books aren’t as good as they used to be.

You get all the new ideas and new perspectives you need online.

You’re past your book-reading phase.

It takes too long to read a book.

It’s not an efficient way to take in new information.

Who reads books these days?
