Don’t have a reading goal

If you want to enjoy reading, don’t have a reading goal.

If you want to read more books by female authors or explore a new genre or something like that, go for it. But that’s not what I’m talking about. Once you say “I want to read X number of books this year,” whatever that number is, you’ve turned what should be an enjoyable, enriching experience into work.

Just read what you like and read often—that’s all.
