I got a lot of free time on my hands being unemployed and gaming has reached a point of being work with the completionist mindset I play them with so breaking into reading more often has helped me. When your in public reading people leave you alone so that's a plus (me being brown the police eyeball me all the time but seeing me reading they fuck off). That part may or may not apply but on some level I think people appreciate seeing someone read.
Definitely read things your interest in and treat yourself to some slop, idk the more I read the easier it gets to keep reading.
