Shall I pay DD13 to read books?

My DD has been doing some chores to earn some money and it really seems to motivate her. What I would much prefer that she do however, is read. She has never been a big reader, she has loads of books which she does enjoy but will literally take a week to read a chapter, there are just other things she would rather do. I love reading and I think it is so important for her ongoing education, but I can’t work out how to get her into it. I wonder if she got stuck into a book, even for the wrong reasons (being paid), as she gets more fluent it will become easier and she might start to enjoy it more. Has anyone else tried this?
