Finding time to read is difficult if you have a busy schedule. I find the best thing is reserving an hour before bed time and curling up with your book. If you're afraid of falling asleep with the book, let me suggest heading to a quiet coffee shop for an hour or two.

Additionally, I know that short stories aren't popular these days, but they are great if you would like a quick read and don't want the pressure of reading a 250-page story in order to find out what happens at the end.

I'm also a fan of fun commercial and non-fiction books.

Here are some suggested readings:
Best American Short Stories - 2006
Drinking Coffee Elsewhere by ZZ Packer
Blink by Malcolm Gladwell
