I was such a wake and bake stoner that I never understood the joy of reading until forced to be sober. I hate to admit it, but I couldn't remember what I read a page back half the time so there was no way to really get into the flow of a book. I had to keep going back and forth and forgot too much along the way while reading.
Not saying there's anything wrong with smoking, just countering your thread title with my own messed up experience. If you haven't smoked yourself retarted for way too long like I did then you're far better off than me, but try to learn to use your full imagination while sober is all I'm saying, you should be able to enjoy a book either way.
