You Do Have Time to Read

Books can enrich your vocabulary, expand your mind, and widen your perspective. Book make great gifts.

Why aren't you reading a book? Most people claim they don't have time. I've already written a post about listening to audio books: http://penelopemarzec.blogspot.com/2011/05/no-time-for-books.html

However, Daughter #1 pointed me toward an excellent link about how to make time to read a book when you're busy. You can find it here:

I've written a book and started writing another this year. In addition, I've read twenty-two books. I don't consider that a lot, and I probably would have read more if I didn't have the responsibility of caring for elderly parents.

Often, I read while I'm pedaling on my recumbent bike. I don't watch television, except for the news. I find books are far more interesting than television shows.

So pick up a book, download a book, or listen to an audio book. Give books to your loved ones this holiday season.

You do have time to read.
