Q: Syncing iPad/iPhone Reading List Problem

iPad 3 - 16GB iOS 8.2

iPone 4 - iOS 7.1.2

iCloud - 3.1GB available

2 issues:

     1. Reading list is not being synced between devices. If a bookmark is added to the reading list in the iPad, it does not sync to the iPhone (vice versa).

     2. Adding bookmarks to the reading lists on both devices takes a long time. If I add a bookmark, I then have to wait at least 30 mins before adding another. If I      try to add one sooner, I get the warning message: "Bookmarks are being synced. Please add the bookmark once syncing has completed."

This is a new problem that has cropped up for me only in the last few months. Prior to this, reading list/bookmarks syncing was working fine.
