    Have you tried audiobooks? I don’t read much paper nowadays, but I still find time to listen to at least a book a month. All for free through my library!

    Also, what book is it?

      I tried, unfortunately I get shuffled between relatively solitary jobs and customer service on a moment’s notice. I think last time I tried I was listening to something gory and didn’t have time to pause it before helping a little kid find clothes. Sorry if I looked traumatized, kid.

      I could probably find more opportunities to listen at home while doing chores and stuff, though. I have a tendency to want to take in fiction in big blocks of time instead small chunks split across the day, but it’s not always an option.

      And the book is The Passenger by Cormac McCarthy! I picked it up kinda blind because I’ve had both friends and Lemmy users recommend books by him, but the library didn’t have any of the ones that were suggested to me.
