How to Read More — Rituals, Resources, and the 11 Books I’ve Read So Far in 2021

How Can I Get Into Reading More?

Want to read more, but not sure how? Try these rituals that encourage reading, resources to help you read more, and a list of 11 books I’ve read so far this year.

4 Rituals that Encourage Reading

1. Incorporate reading into your daily rituals:

   • Read a soothing book before bed

   • Read an inspiring book with your morning coffee

   • Read something fun in the afternoon instead of scrolling social media

2. Pick up more fiction! Give yourself permission to read something fun, easy, and quick.

3. Anchor reading to a specific location:

   • Read in a cozy corner of your home

   • Read in the bath

   • Read on your porch

4. Read a few books at a time. I always have an audio book, Kindle, and actual book in rotation. Here are my current reads:

• Audiobook - Cassandra Speaks: When Women Are the Storytellers, the Human Story Changes by Elizabeth Lesser

• Kindle - Seven Days in June by Tia Williams

• Actual - How to Read the Akashic Records by Linda Howe

4 Resources for Reading More

• Goodreads - my go-to place for keeping track of what I’ve read and what I want to read. Let’s be friends! Click here to connect.

• Bookshop - where I buy all my books. I love that it allows you to support a local bookstore of your choice when you purchase. Check out my profile and recommendations here.

• Libro.fm - where I get my audiobooks. They also make it possible to support your local bookstore. Click here to get started with Libro.fm.

• Libby App - lets you borrow ebooks and more from your local public library for free, which is just so amazing. Visit libbyapp.com for more.
