I have a few resolutions to share over the next week, the first being to read 12 books in 2014. Last winter I spent most of my free time planning our wedding and I fell behind on reading. I recently created a list of books I want to read, and realized as the list grew longer that I wish I took the time to read more often.
I ride public transportation for close to an hour every weekday {going to and from work}, and far too much of that time is spent perusing Facebook or reading the news on my phone. This time would be much better spent with a good book. There is an interesting Huffington Post article on 7 Unconventional Reasons Why You Absolutely Should Be Reading Books, including to strengthen your brain, sleep better, and increase empathy for others.
Here is my list for the year:
