There are thousands of books out there, all with something to offer us, something for us to take away. Even though I may not be as avid of a reader as I once was, spending my free time with a book was something I used to dive myself into daily. And, you should to! Reading can often be dubbed as boring or tedious, but once you find a book you love, you’ll realize the importance of reading and how much you can grow from a single book.
