The idea of sitting down and reading a book might seem more like a homework assignment than a relaxing activity.Selecting a genre and book that you like can make reading a book enjoyable.Incorporating creative activities into your reading process will help ensure you have fun while reading.
Step 1: Find the perfect genre.
Match yourself to a book genre that you enjoy reading.If you don't know what you want to read, ask your friends, family, or librarians for suggestions.Fantasy, historical fiction, horror, humor, mystery, poetry, science fiction and nonfiction are some of the genres of books.Ask yourself what kind of movies you like to watch.If you can't figure it out, go to a local library and read a chapter or two from a different book.If you want to go off the beaten path, choose an unusual genre.An adult might prefer Young Adult books while a child might enjoy reading a graphic novel.
Step 2: Pick a book that stands out to you.
You just need a book title to make sure you have fun, because the genre is down.You can browse bookshelves for splashy covers or look on the internet for fun sounding titles.Pick a few books to begin reading at the same time.The best book will win.Make a child feel special by giving them a gift card or allowing them to sign up for their own library card.
Step 3: Pick an e-book.
Are you going on vacation?Do you enjoy being able to choose your own style?Does a cool reading device cover make you happy when you sit down?You don't have to leave home to check out or purchase e-books.
Step 4: There is a place to read.
Think about the places you like to read.Since books are portable, you can take them anywhere.A bathtub, bed, or a quiet reading room are examples of calm, relaxing spaces.Those who like bustle and hustle can read in a pub, cafe or restaurant.If the outdoors air appeals to you, bring your book with you on a beach or camping trip.A magic carpet and overstuffed pillows make reading exciting for little ones in a dedicated reading room.
Step 5: Personal touches can improve your environment.
Are you a fan of listening to music?Are you snacking on chips?Do you mean curling up under a blanket?These things should be available in your environment to make you feel better while reading.
Step 6: The best time to read is during the day.
Pick a time when you'll be most alert and relaxed.It is a good time to read and retain information in the early morning or late evening.Work and school can get in the way of week days.It may be more enjoyable to read on the weekend afternoons.If you're winding down at night, read a chapter or two before you go to sleep.
Step 7: Speak aloud.
You can channel the characters if you put on your best dramatic reading voice.Think about how the characters might respond to you when you ask them questions.This will help make reading more enjoyable.
Step 8: There are books that are adapted for movies.
You can enjoy reading books based on movies you like.Before and after seeing a movie on the big screen, read a book and look for any differences between the print and screen versions.
Step 9: Join a reading group.
Meeting up with friends in a reading group is a great way to improve your reading skills.It's fun to vent about a frustrating character with friends.Food and friendship are included in book club meetings.You will leave with a full tummy, happy heart, and satisfied mind.If you prefer not to leave your home, engage with others on book forums.
Step 10: You should read with a friend.
It's fun to partner with another person to read.If you want to improve your reading experience, take turns reading to each other.If you only read a chapter or two each sitting, you will build anticipation for the next reading session with your partner.
Step 11: Write your feelings down.
As you read, keep a journal where you can keep track of your emotions.When you finish the book, you can look over your thoughts and remember the parts that made you laugh, or spoke to you.
