Create a reading list

Have you read any good books lately? Do you have a favorite author? Those are great questions if you’re considering what to add to your reading list. A good book can work wonders. Reading expands your vocabulary, teaches you new things, provides an escape from your busy realm, and gives you a chance to imagine. Set aside an area in your planner to list your favorite authors. Some people use a set of address and phone tabs for their reading list. See if you can find any books written by authors you’ve enjoyed in the past that you haven’t read yet. Find out what your friends are reading and get suggestions from them. Before long, you’ll have a great list of creative diversions waiting for you to explore. As you read, make notes in your reading list—did you enjoy the book? Would you read it again? Would you recommend it to a friend?
