How I Read 85+ Books A Year (AND Budget Friendly) 📖

As someone who's been reading dozens and dozens of books every year for the past 18 years, I have a lot of thoughts about the world of reading. So I wanted to use today's video to share an updated reading routine in which I deep dive into my top reading tips, share how I read so many books without breaking the bank, and how I decide between my kindle and kobo for e-reading! I hope this video gives you some ideas on how to make reading more consistent in your life (not because we all need to be hitting big reading goals, but because there's so many great stories out there to be discovered)!
