In March, I read five books.
In April, I have read no books so far.
This is much slower than my normal reading pace. I can't blame the pandemic, because I wound up reading slightly more books in 2020 than I did in 2019.
Am I just getting old? Is this what cognitive decline feels like? I love reading as much as I ever have, but my focus is really impaired when I try to read for pleasure.
Oddly enough, I find that I can read with the speed and focus I'm used to if I'm sitting in the car waiting for someone. A few days ago I read over half a novel that way in about 40 minutes. But I haven't touched it since.
Maybe I just need a change in scenery or routine?

Maybe you just read all the good books? I don't read a lot of fiction anymore. I also just read in short bursts, my eyesight is terrible.
