So how many of you read books/novels on regular basis??  ​Very few right!!!

I know it's hard to slot your time for reading books, as one of tiny culprit in your pocket which hinders to do is smartphones/tablets.  Some people will have the habit of reading ​blogs/eBooks/some online clickbait titles and fascinating long form ​articles.It's well and good, but it is the different forms of electronic screens which we glued to for the whole day in office, breaks etc..It has devastating effect on your eyes, without it we can't divine this beautiful world...

Titbits.

    A nationwide survey conducted by the National Book Trust of India revealed that one-fourth of the youth popula​tion, a staggering figure of 83 million, identify themselves as book readers.

    Given that almost half of India's population is under the age of 25, it's no wonder that a large part of the book trade is dominated by academic and children's books which account for 40% and 30% of the market respectively.

    Barring some run away successes, print-runs for non-academic books rarely exceed 2,000 copies in the first instance and a bestseller is often a book that has sold only as many as 10,000 copies.

    The Maximum Retail Price Act stipulates that a maximum price must be printed on every book.

    No VAT is charged on books and there are no customs fees for importing books.

So we read by compulsion not by desire...

Delightfully Short Guide to Reading More Books:

Reading triggers: Tie your new reading habit to different triggers throughout your day. Best would be reading few pages before going to bed.

Enjoy the reading: Don't look at reading books like a chore that you have to rush through. If you do, you'll stop reading. Instead, look at the reading sessions as a treat

Always bring your book: Wherever you go, bring your book. Like when you travelling, it is better to accompany a good book then a nonstop chatterbox.

Use a closet: close your devices when you read. Their notifications and such will just distract you. If you have to, put your phone and laptop in a different room, in a closet.

 So enjoy your books, my friends .let yourself feel the transformations it imbibes you.
