Myself personally I get most of my reading done on my 45 minute commute to work on the bus/train. I also enjoy reading in the mornings on weekends and occasionally in the evening on weekdays.

Another thing I like to do with my wife on the weekend is pick up some lunch and coffee and then read at the park.

Generally carrying my ereader around constantly means that idle moments in public end up getting used to advance in the book I’m reading, instead of purposelessly checking my phone or using social media. I think I read a post on here in another thread where someone else has had the same experience.

What about y'all? Any rituals? Do you play music?

I read ebooks almost exclusively (aside from graphic novels), and while I could take my kindle anywhere I feel most comfortable reading at home. I frequently read in bed after I wake up and before I sleep. Scrolling social media in bed is/was one of my bad habits; I see I'm not alone in picking up a book instead of giving my time to twitter/reddit/youtube.
