Not technically reading, but...I generally listen to audiobooks on my walk into work, downloaded for free from www.librivox.org (basically an audiobook version of Project Gutenberg, a load of volunteers trying to get all public domain books into mp3 format). Because it's restricted to public domain stuff, it's kind of forced me to read (well, have read to me) a load of the classics that I wouldn't go near normally cause I'm too busy reading sci-fi and fantasy.
In the past month or so I've got through Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, The Railway Children (YES IT COUNTS AS A CLASSIC) and Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions, and I'm looking forward to really getting into Moby Dick. As it were.
