On trains, during lectures (yeah chem!), between classes, before sleep. There's plenty of time if you look for it.

hehe me too, and you're not meant to read in bed cos you learn to associate bed with being awake reading or something like that. I pay no attention to that, maybe that why I always have so much trouble sleeping 
At the moment I usually snatch a few minutes in the morning when I'm meant to be getting ready for uni, and do the rest on the weekends.

I've always read before bed, and it's good. I kave a good, strong, fluorescent lamp though, and always wear my glasses when reading at night (like with computer) so my eyes don't get more screwed.

At the risk of sounding like a bad motivational speaker, you have to make time to read. Between lectures, while being transported, spare moments, time before bed, whenever.. Works for me.

BEHOLD!
There is no time. Every subject I do I have to do wide reading for, so I have no time for "recreational reading". Sometimes I cheat and pretend what i'm reading is related to my subjects, a link easily made when you're doing ext 2 english, anything at all can be related!

I try to make time for reading...but my concentration wavers and the book IS left untouched
I agree 100% ... I sit there and read Anne Rice books and convince my parents and myself that it's essential reading for the gothic major work...
or that reading the complete works of Jane Austen will somehow help my studies in Pride and Prejudice the mini series...

Do you know, it's a shock for me that you're not supposed to read in bed... I didn't know that. For me, I usually can't get to sleep without reading in bed beforehand. It's the cosiest spot! What that means, at least, is that I generally squeeze at least fifteen minutes in a day, which is a pathetically sad amount, but you take what you can get. But it is hard to find time to read what you want especially-- with all the related text searching as well as prescribed, time for your own choice is pretty limited. I'm lucky that I generally enjoy all the books I have to read, but still... the problem with me is that the books I most enjoy are usually quite heavy and around exams, when I'm really bogged down with thinking, I can never be bothered to pick them up. So I revert to lighter books, and I hate beginning a book when I haven't finished another one; it's awful and it itchies me.
So that's my input.

well I read on a bean bag and im not allowed to read in bed cos it apparently damages ur eyes so maybe think of investing in one of those...?
