Unlike writing, reading time is something that you can sneak into the rest of your day. All you really need is a book and a bit of free time. If you can sneak in four fifteen minute reading sessions a day, you've got an hour of reading done and seven hours of reading a week. If you are a reasonably fast reader, that is easily a novel a week.

You can bring a book/ebook reader with you:

in the bathroom
over your lunch hour or during a work break
in your car before or after work
before you go to bed
while waiting for someone

and you'll get some reading done each day, probably a couple of chapters.
