The Art of Reading Slowly: Tips and Reflections for Book Lovers 📖✨
Hi Bookish Besties!
In a world that often prioritizes reading more, faster, and sooner, I want to explore a different approach: the art of reading slowly.
From experience, I know that it’s easy to feel like you need to rush through your TBR pile or read a certain number of books each year. Plus, as a content creator, it’s par for the course.
But there’s something magical about slowing down, taking your time with a book, and genuinely savoring every word.
This week, I’m sharing my experiences as a reader who reads books quickly for content creation and how I grapple with it. The joy and value of slow reading—how it deepens your connection with stories and characters and transforms your relationship with books. Plus, I’ll share practical tips to help you embrace this mindful approach to reading.
