For me, the main reason for lowered annual books read is "no commute" (it IS possible to set time aside just to read, but over the decades, I have gotten used to read on buses, tubes, trains, planes... and thus frequently forgetting that I can actually just read whenever I want to).

Pre-COVID, I usually managed 120 to 150 books per year. Now, it is probably down to about 40.

Totally. The time of my life where I read the most was when I spent about 1 hour daily on the metro.
