My partner is a professor and has always preached 2 things about academic reading:
Skimming (you get assigned so much reading that it would take up most of your waking hours to thoroughly read and consider every single word
Annotating (this gives your reading purpose and also helps you retain information)
It’s not your job to be someone who enjoys learning so much that you attend lectures in your free time and will engage with the material as if it were a hobby. Some people are obsessed with their topic area and they tend to become subject matter experts whether they do that through academia or not. Most people aren’t like that and it’s not your job to pretend that that’s you if it’s not. Just get good at what you do and get through your schoolwork.
