4 Resources & Tips That Will Help You Read More

1. Books can get expensive. A great way to save money, while still reading as much as you want, is to utilize your local library. By having a library card you’ll also have access to apps like Libby and Hoopla. These apps bring the library to you by letting you borrow ebooks. How awesome is that?
2. If the books you want to read are older, I personally love using ThriftBooks. Using this site you’ll be able to buy used books at low prices. I’ve got three books for only $12 before. 
3. Don’t have time to read? A great solution to this is to try audiobooks. Audible is a popular option for audiobooks. By listening to your book you’ll be able to read throughout your day. If you have a long commute to and from work, this is a perfect option for you.
4. Another great way to read more in the new year is to join a book club or a reading challenge. We hosted a reading challenge in 2019. Did you participate in GenTwenty’s Reading Bingo Blackout Challenge?

These are just a few of the many new books coming in 2021. Which ones are you looking forward to reading? What books are on your 2021 To-Be-Read list?
