“I’m studying to be a librarian.”

“What’s the sexiest part about being a librarian?”

“I’d say the width of our knowledge. The rest of academia seems to have a rather specific focal point, whereas librarians need to know enough to serve as a guide for researchers of every discipline.”

If you are new in making reading goals, think of these books to read at least each twice a month. Take your time in reading! :)

The Last Time We Say Goodbye by Cynthia Hand

Hand is a NY Times bestselling author whose story of love, loss and mystery looks to be a book we’re all going to want to read this year. Popular for her young adult books, this novel appears to be breaking her out of that demographic. 

Dark Places, by Gillian Flynn

Gillian Flynn is no stranger to being recognized in the must-read world. Her hit Gone Girl was all over the place last year. Pick up a copy of Dark Places before the movie comes out this year.

The Girl on the Train, by Paula Hawkins

A mystery that has been described as a psychological thriller, The Girl on the Train, looks like a must-read for the coming year. Hawkins’ debut novel seems like it will be the kind of book that keeps you up at night until you finish it.

There are dozen good books you can add to your Good reads to-read shelves for the coming year. Hope you can find it in different bookstore near your place. #HappyReading

5 tips to improve your reading skills! ♥




1. Find something to read. Examples include a children's book, a newspaper article, a short story, or something on wikiHow.

2. Go to the library and pick up lots of books. Pick books depending on yourreading level, no matter what your age.Choose interesting and easily read books such as comic books, as well as reading books containing formal words. Reading is about enjoying the experience too

.

3

Find a place to read where you can concentrate. This may be someplace secret where no one will bother you, or simply your home at a time when it is quiet.

4

Schedule a routine time to read. Do this at least for the times you have nothing else to do, such as when you're on the bus. That way, a good book only entertains you but can also can help you learn to read faster.

5

Reread. If you don't understand what you are reading, read over the sentence(s) again. Try reading the words out loud to yourself. If you still don't understand something, ask a good reader nearby to explain the sentence(s) to you, or simply pick up a book that is easier to read and more appropriate to your reading level. Feel free to use your finger as a pointer. It will keep your eyes focused on the line you are reading, improving your understanding.
