We have almost the exact same reading history: I really ramped up my reading in 2019 - 2020 up to ~40 books. This year I did some nights/weekends consulting so I am down around 22 atm.
I mostly read non-fiction and I think it has been helpful for my career. I know correlation != causation, but I make about 2x what I did in 2020. The post-pandemic hiring boom didn't hurt, but I have to think reading widely and applying what I read to my work & life has also helped.
