Atomic Habits by James Clear is a must read for anyone who wants to improve some aspects of their life. Mr. Clear also sends weekly hints if reader is subscribed to him.

A modern classic, and one of my favorites!

Thanks for sharing ... the best I ever read was Les Miserables by Victor Hugo... a long, long book, but a great story about humanity, change, and love ... great lessons for life ...

Les Mis is a serious commitment, but sounds like it paid off.

Love reading and growing and learning! Most recently, I've read "The Game of Life and How to Play it" by Florence Scovel Shinn....Fabulous book! I also enjoy historical fiction and anything by Kristin Hannah!

I am pretty much a non-reader. Partial dyslexia? I don't know. One book that I highly recommend is "Blue Ocean Strategy" by W. Chan Kim and Renee Mauborgne. It shows that companies achieve lasting success not by fighting competitors in crowded "red oceans" but by creating uncontested "blue oceans" of new market space.

I will have to check out Blue Oceans... curious, do you like audio books? They count too.

I’ve been a reader since I can remember. When I got a new book from the library, I’d go to my room and read until Mom called me for dinner. My sister never read until she was in her 30s…now she works in the school library:)

That's an interesting contrast, and it kind of proves the point either way. Doesn't matter if it clicks at 8 or 38, once it clicks it clicks. Love that your sister ended up surrounded by books for a living. Sounds like it found her eventually.
