I was tagged by Becky at Strikeouts & Sprinkles in the Good Reading Habits Tag! Thanks, Becky!
The rules for this tag are pretty simple: discuss your good reading habits, tag back to the original creator, and tag a few friends!
Read book reviews
One of my favorite ways to keep me interested in reading is to read book reviews. I especially love reading the book reviews by my favorite bloggers. By reading these reviews I often am introduced to books that I’ve never heard of but am interested in reading. Which leads me to my next habit.
Keep a TBR list
Once I find a book I’m interested in reading I immediately add it to my TBR list. I personally keep my list on my phone for easy access. I will also add books to my Amazon Wishlist if it’s near a holiday or my birthday so Brett has some idea of what to get me if he needs to buy a gift.
Read a little each day
Sometimes I really don’t feel like reading even though I know I will enjoy it once I start. I set a goal to read a little bit everyday and sometimes that little bit turns into half a book in one night.
If you don’t like it, don’t read it
If I’m not enjoying a book I won’t force myself to keep reading it. I give all books a fair chance but life is too short to read a book that you don’t enjoy, in my opinion.
Kindle Unlimited
I originally started with a free 2 month trial of Kindle Unlimited with the intention of cancelling after the 2 months. I actually loved it though and found myself reading so much more. I decided it was worth the price for now and have enjoyed my membership!

Such a fun tag!!! I love reading book reviews too – I like thebrightongirl on Instagram for book recommendations!!! However I need to do like you do and keep an actual tbr list on my phone so when it comes to shopping for my books, I have a list to refer to!
Love the goal of reading everyday & I agree, if I’m not feeling a book I don’t force it!!!
Have a great week ❤️
