Before we walked over to the bar to ring in the new year last night, I polished off MASTERS OF ATLANTIS as my last book of 2025. I'd put it on my to-read list after this review ... whew, back in 2020?

Somehow I've got that problem that just reading a book feels like I'm neglecting "important" work. My task list is long and there is always some "productive" stuff I could do. I intellectually understand that reading is important and not just a recreational activity. Also I understand recreation is important. Still there is this nagging feeling when I pick up a book and read.
Do you have the same issue? How did or would you address it?
