Tips to Make Reading a Habit


  • Set realistic goals: Begin with a bite-sized reading target, like a few pages or a chapter per day. As your reading habit grows, you can challenge yourself with more ambitious goals.
  • Create a reading routine: Find your perfect reading time, be it before bed, during your morning commute, or on a cozy weekend afternoon. Stick to this routine to make reading second nature.
  • Minimize distractions: Designate a comfy, quiet spot for reading. Turn off electronic devices or put them on silent mode to keep distractions at bay.
  • Read a variety of genres: Keep things interesting by exploring different genres. This will expose you to new ideas and perspectives, fueling your curiosity and love for reading.
  • Join a book club or reading community: Connect with fellow bookworms! A reading community offers motivation, accountability, and opportunities for riveting book discussions.

The Benefits of a "To Be Read" Checklist


A TBR checklist is your ultimate reading sidekick! Here are some reasons why a TBR checklist is every book lover's best friend:

  • Prioritize your reading list: A TBR checklist helps you decide which books to read next, so you don't spend hours staring at your bookshelf or scrolling through online bookstores.
  • Track your progress: A TBR checklist lets you visually track your reading accomplishments, giving you a sense of achievement and motivating you to read more.
  • Stay accountable: By listing the books you want to read, you create a commitment to yourself, encouraging you to be consistent in your reading habit.
  • Discover new books: As you research and add books to your TBR checklist, you'll uncover new titles and authors to add to your reading repertoire.
