I had my kids and didn't read anything for a few years. Since then I've read a lot, but purely entertaining quick-reads. I figure it's better than nothing. Maybe one day I'll get back into more thought-provoking books, but it will probably have to be with the help of a book club. It's hard for me to read that type of book unless I have other people to bounce ideas off of (like in a classromm setting).
