As of late, I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to music while reading. I don’t know what caused me to first start this habit up again (my friends wanting to play video games while I wanted to read…), but I felt it necessary to create a new playlist for reading and share it with you all!

The playlist is 2 hours long, which seems like enough time for me to read, stop, start again, and finish the playlist. I have weird music listening habits and will not apologize for them. It also is filled with music that is either entirely instrumental or soft music. Some of the songs might be a bit more not-mellow, but there are times in each book that need a few songs that go with the action.
You can follow the 2019 reading playlist and get some inspiration to keep reading.
Some of the songs that I included in the playlist are…
- Angels by Khalid
- Float On by Modest Mouse
- Aquarium by Nosaj Thing
- Comfort Zone by General Fuzz
- Afterglow by Attom, Ciele
I really love this little reading playlist and will probably add to it the more I listen and find new music.
Let me know if you like listening to music while reading, and if so, what type of music.
Feel free to share and create your own playlist from songs that are in this playlist.

I like listening to music while reading too, but I find use instrumental mostly.

For me it really depends on the book I’m reading. I personally have several different playlists that I listen to for certain types of books.

That’s cool. Music does help with concentration for me at least, and sometimes makes the story more intense as well.
