The figures are dismal...most adults don't read. Ever. Some may read one book a year.
Yet books are powerful tools...if used. In the 14th century, writer, monk and bishop Richard de Bury said, "Books are masters who instruct us without words or anger, without bread or money. If you approach them, they are not asleep. If you seek them, they do not hide, if you blunder, they do not scold, if you are ignorant, they do not laugh at you."
You don't even have to plug a book in!
There are several great books located in my "carousel" to the left. If you need a recommendation, ask!
But remember...you'll never "find" time to read; you need to make time to read.
And avoid the danger of reading books about the Book rather than the Book!

A nice reminder for everyone. I still have yet to reach my goal of reading 100 books in a year. I'll have to look at my list, but I think I read about 60 different books this year.
