    How can I read for long periods of time?

    If you need to read for a long time, find a well lit, comfortable place. Have a cup of coffee or tea to keep you going. Divide your reading into sections and take small breaks in between sections.

    Buy a booklight! They are made to be attached to a book with a clasp. They're about 7 dollars, I think. I use mine all of the time.

    What if I fall asleep each time I pick my book?

    Go to bed a little earlier than usual so you have time to read. If you don't want to do that, splash cold water on your face when you notice yourself getting too sleepy.

    How do I overcome laziness when reading?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    When you read, sit up straight in a chair (important to prevent laziness) and put both feet flat on the floor. Resist the urge to read in bed. It's bad for your posture and neck.

    Get a small flashlight, or consider a brighter nightlight that will allow you to read better.
