How do you read so much?

Send us a textIf you're a reader, you've probably had someone ask you this question. We unpack what this question sometimes really means (How do you have so much free time? Must be nice having no obligations! I'm so busy I could never find time to read. You must be some kind of a superhero!) and explore the roots of some of these false beliefs about reading. We then talk about tips and tricks for reading more if you or someone you know is asking this question in earnest. Part sass, part research, and part practical suggestions - this episode has it all! -----------------------Books we're reading in this episode:  And the Sea Will Tell by Vincent Bugliosi with Bruce HendersonPeople We Meet on Vacation by Emily HenryIn Love with George Eliot by Kathy O'ShaughnessyPortrait of a Scotsman (A League of Extraordinary Women series book #3) by Evie Dunmore ----------------------- Sources listed in the order they appear in the episode:    Quote Investigator®. 2010. “Time You Enjoy Wasting Is Not Wasted Time.” June 11, 2010. https://quoteinvestigator.com/2010/06/11/time-you-enjoy/. Tucker, Ian. 2011. “The Shallows by Nicholas Carr – Review.” The Guardian, July 2 2011. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2011/jul/03/shallows-nicholas-carr-internet-neurology.Mills, Kim. 2023. “Why Our Attention Spans Are Shrinking, with Gloria Mark, PhD.” American Psychological Association, February 2023. https://www.apa.org/news/podcasts/speaking-of-psychology/attention-spans.Psst!
