This post is inspired by the plethora of books I’ve received lately from awesome giveaways, free Kindle books, and book launch teams that I’ve had the privilege to be a part of. {This post contains affiliate links}
One simply doesn’t have time to finish every book they start…or do they? Usually not.
This girl jumps from book to book in a heartbeat.
As a result, I don’t learn much from what I’m reading.
I used to do very well with finishing books that I start; several books at once.
I read in what I call “clusters”.
I’d choose a book from several different genres to be well-rounded.
God’s Word is of course the only book that has been my constant companion. That’s a given!
I read a blog post from my Abra of Mere Breath : Reading Encouragement for Mommies that reminded me of how I used to cluster read.
I saw my friend, Celeste’s Instagram photo of a stack of books. She had hers in order of reading them. I was inspired to put a plan on paper!
I wrote the following note to myself:
My goal for 2015 is to be intentional in “Cluster Reading”.
Not to set too lofty a goal to condemn myself, but to stretch myself.
My clusters are:
- Spiritual/Prayer
- Marriage
- Parenting/Home Education
- PMA (Positive Mental Attitude/Entrepreneurship)
- Writing (skills)
Book choice will change as new books are available/presented.
So, friend, how do YOU keep to your reading? Do you intentionally schedule it or does it happen as it happens?
What are you currently reading?
