Reply to comment by zedatkinszed in People who are forced to read a lot (e.g. students), how do you find the time/energy to also read for pleasure? by FrostyGenie

In some ways, I suppose, it works out better to be an autodidact. Not likely to be burnt out, perhaps

I mightn't have been clear in my post. It's not that they don't read or watch for pleasure it's that they don't at all.

I once had a woman of 20 come up to me in 2nd year of a media course, in a module about films, telling me she has never watched a film!
