If by "regularly" you mean, while sitting on the toilet, then yes.

I used to read a lot when I was younger. Once I hit my 30's, only certain books actually made me get them and read them. I'm actually waiting for this second season of GOT to finish so I can start the first 2 books. I'm a big fan of Dean Koontz, last one I read from his was 'The Reaping'. He's got recent ones that I don't have interest in, so I haven't bothered...same with Stephen King.

Looking forward to staring Martin's GOT books.

I used to read a lot but now that I have my Kindle with 'free' streaming that has replaced my reading time. I used to curl up with a good book before bed and now I hit the lights and watch my kindle.

I don't read much anymore. The last time I read was in 2009 when I was going through the Wheel of Time series again.

i go between 1-2 a week to about 5-7 a week. it really depends on my mood at the time, the size of the books, how easy or difficult they are to read and my pain levels at the time. (cuz if i have to take a lot of percs i'm stuck with tv or games instead.)

I wouldn't say "regularly". Occasionally, sure.
