I'm the same way and I hate it. I have to force myself to read a book these days and if I don't get far enough into it quickly, I end up never finishing it. And it's definitely the fault of sites like Reddit. We have a room in our house we call The Library because it's all bookshelves around the walls and it's full of books. My wife is a librarian. And I never read anymore. It's wrong.
I'm going to start reading tomorrow. That's a promise. I'm half way through "why we are polarized" by Ezra Klein. Stopped reading it a long while ago, but I'm going back to it tomorrow.
