    Amanda, I was just thinking the same thing. It makes me feel like I'm a slacker.

    Then again, some people may read more than they watch TV, movies, write, etc.

    Precisely. TV shows alone are a HUGE time commitment, possibly even more than novels.

    Many shows are around 6 seasons, 10-13 episodes a season, about 50 minutes each... you're looking at anywhere from a 50-70 hour commitment!

    Very true.
    Like I said, 3 books before February is substantial for me!

    Yeah, committing to a tv show, especially binge-watching, will take up most of your life. When I do (rarely) get addicted to a tv show, I don't get any reading done at all.

    My lists are pitifully miniscule also, mainly due to school most of the year.
