]]>Avoid Temptations
If you already have too many books at home that you haven’t read, it’s important to avoid temptations. Don’t go to bookstores too often, and unsubscribe from their newsletters so you wouldn’t be tempted to spend money when there are sales and discounts.
Better Choices
The books you haven’t read will keep piling up if you’re buying them for no good reason. Stick to purchasing books that come highly recommended or the ones you really want to read. If you’re a mood reader, avoid buying things “for later” and only stick to books that you want to dive into right away.
Have a Limit
Set boundaries for yourself by limiting the number of books you can buy or the amount of money you can spend on them. In addition to helping you avoid mindless spending, this technique will help you only buy the books that you’re really interested in.

Bookstore Cafés
Many bookstores around the world come with a charming café on the premises, where you can relax after a long day of sightseeing.
Great New Books
Buying books is the most obvious reason for visiting a bookstore, but there’s a catch. Bookstores in foreign countries are a great place to discover new books that you couldn’t find at home.
Amazing Souvenir
Bookstores also happen to be a great place to find souvenirs—from books to other tiny trinkets that you can take home to your loved ones.
Local Experience
Since they’re usually not as popular as some other tourist attractions, bookstores are a great place to mingle with the locals and attend a wide range of cultural events, from reading nights to art exhibitions and concerts.

]]>Read Books You Like
It may seem like an obvious one, but so many people try to force themselves to read the books that they feel like they “should” be reading, sacrificing the enjoyment and ultimately dropping off because they’re not actually having any fun at all. If you want to start building up a reading habit, it’s important to choose books you like. You can challenge yourself later on when you’re already in the habit of reading a lot.
Quit Early
Similarly, if you start a book and realize that you’re not feeling it as much as you expected, don’t hesitate to stop reading it. It’s okay to be a quitter in this context.
Build Reading Time Into Your Day
The best way to make a habit of reading is to include it into your routine. Whether it’s in the morning, before bed, during lunch, or on the bus, even 15 minutes of daily reading time will add up quick.

]]>Always Keep a Book On You
Most of us aren’t so good at dealing with idle time, so we tend to pull out our phones. But if you used all of those moments of waiting for the bus, waiting in line, or waiting for your coffee order to read instead of scroll Instagram, imagine how much more reading you’d get done!
Find Books You Love
Many people who don’t like to read have bad associations of it from childhood when they were forced to read books in school they weren’t interested in. Well, there’s no reason to make yourself read boring books! There is pretty much a 100% chance you can find a book you’ll enjoy, so choose those instead of trying to force yourself through The Iliad or something (unless that’s what you’re into!).

]]>Reading Goal
If you’re a goal-oriented person, setting a reading goal for 2021 may just be the wind in the back you need. Be realistic yet ambitious at the same time—reading one or two books a month is a good place to start if you’re yet to make reading a part of your daily routine.
Make Right Choices
It’s difficult to stay passionate about reading when you’re not reading books that interest you. Instead of wasting time on books that you think you have to read, focus on the ones that actually seem fun, and you’ll find it much easier to reach your goals.
Alternative Options
If you’re never going off the paper when it comes to reading, 2021 is the perfect time to start. We’re not saying you should ditch paper books altogether, just consider the alternatives. Whenever you find yourself endlessly scrolling through social media, open up an e-book or audiobook on your phone, and you’ll develop a healthy reading habit in no time.
