I didn't read many books in my early 20s, I was used to reading teenager stuff and whatever they gave us in school. I had a very bold thought "reading is useless. I rather enjoy -in a materialistic way- life".

Once I found stuff that I enjoy reading I never really stopped, I feel it nurtures me and helps me cope by understanding reality. I mostly read philosophy and history.

I would consider reading classic literature or science/nature books, but my free time seems to disappear quickly. I don’t even do much and time flies. I like making music, which I do on weekends, and I don’t spend that long doing that either, and I’d rather prioritise that

I would be interested in reading but don’t know how I’d fit it in

I can't help a lot in regards what you might like, essay or just plain "lean something" books are nice. There is no narrative or scenario you should remember or keep emotion and so on... You can slowly take stuff from them. I've read and re read same parts of some books without ending them for years; don't feel forced to finish a book because you are reading it currently.

In regards time, I try organizing myself for all my hobbies. Not like I'm setting events on my calendars but I journal and it helps me get stuff done and waste less time unconsciously but I still get this feeling, the only real fix is being a neet.

I haven't touched a book in about a decade

That stuff is for nerds. Why read physical books when you have pretty much everything available digitally nowadays
