Finding so many booktubers to subscribe to. All great work! I’ve been slowly going through the Luke McCain Mysteries books, and using Bookly to track how many pages I’ve read.

I would add a couple of strategies here:
1. Know roughly how many pages you read per hour (may differ between fiction and non-fiction) and then from that extrapolate how long each book on your list will take you to read. This way you can schedule books effectively and keep your eye on the prize. If for example you have a long train journey you can see it as 50% of your goal book done, and that’s more motivating as a way to ignore distractions and focus on reading. I find this also pushes me to try and finish books in a day if I know that it will take me ~6 hours or less.
2. Utilise the pomodoro technique, at least for challenging non-fiction books.
3. Have a dedicated reading space.
4. Integrate reading into other goals like language learning.
