I don't have a set amount that I read, some days I will do more than others, some days none, it depends what else I have got on, and how tired I am to be honest.

Oh dear, I do quite a bit of reading, but nowhere near enough! I feel guilty if I do anything else not involving midwifery.

I read in the bath, in bed and on the loo (sorry TMI I know! hahaha)

I am making a diary thingie of important things to know, note-taking, observations, guidelines etc and read what interests me too. When searching for info on essay subjects I often see something else that interests me and get lost with that for a bit!

So i don't know, but it is everyday, pretty much

I'm really bad i confess. I read for essays and that's about it, smwife puts me to shame as she is ALWAYS reading.
I feel like there is so much to read that I just get scared and end up doing nothing!! I find academic reading much harder than writing an essay tbh.
I always put things away and think I will read that in the summer hols, but never quite manage it

Hahahaha me too... its the only place i get any peace... no phones, no cats, no doorbell, no husband! bliss! Shame its so cold in the bathroom!

I mainly read for revision and essays, or when we are asked to read something for a lesson.

However, this has come back and bitten me on the bum! I thought I had read loads for my essays but it wasn't enough So next year, I shall be reading much more. I have already declared that at lunchtime I will not be sat an hour in student union eating rubbish, I shall be sat in the libary reading or making a head start on my essays/revision.

Personally, I don't think you can ever do enough reading. And I know whatever I do won't ever be enough

When i first started i was reading and reading but as the yr as gone on i seem to have less time to do all the reading i want to do.

I have said to myself i need to do more but it's finding the time.
