Why We Love Reading

  Why We Love Reading


In our past blog posts we have told you a lot of things about getting into reading,finding your genre and how to have the most enjoyment out of a book.


Through all of those blog posts we never told you why we enjoy reading so much ourselves. We decided to make a list of reasons that we enjoy reading so much.


  1. You Can Go Anywhere.

When you read a good book, then you could end up at the top of Mount Everest or at the bottom of the Pacific ocean without leaving your house.

  1. You Could Be Anyone.

When you are reading you could be reading a book in the perspective of the Queen of England or one of the slaves who escaped in America and you almost feel like it all happened to you.

  1. Anything Could Happen.

If you are reading a book, the rules of the real world are all left behind. People are magic or coming back from the dead and you rarely see it coming

  1. You can “Zone Out”

When you are really into a book it can almost feel like everyone and everything around you has disappeared and there is just you and your book left in the room.

  1. It helps to educate you

When you re reading, you will often come across words that you don’t know the meaning of. When you read a word that you haven't seen before in a sentence, then by reading the rest of the sentence it will be easier to figure out what that word means, and by doing so that word is added to your vocabulary

  1. It can change your opinion.

If you are reading a book about a world war or about a revolution, you will probably already have an opinion on the happenings of that time. But when you read a book from the perspective of someone of another opinion then, by the end of the book,your opinion may have changed to that of the main character.

  1. You can read the same book again and again

A book is a very special thing that you can just read again and again no matter how old you are and you will always pick up a different detail or have a slightly different opinion on the book itself.

  1. There is a book out there for everyone.

No matter who you are or what you like, there is a book out there that you will love. Whether it’s a romance novel,a thriller or a fairy-tale there is a book for everyone, no matter there personality.

  1. It’s fun.

There’s no other way of describing reading a really good book. It is like having some of your worst memories and some of your best ones put into your head in the most magical way


So that is why we like reading and have from as long as we can remember. Do you like to read? Why/ Why not?

Happy Reading

Reading Consistently: A Quick Guide

Well hello there :), We are gathered today to discuss something that is an amalgamation (spell check? absolutely) of two topics I find quite interesting: reading (obviously) and habit-building. Yes, yes I am a nerd. I have decided to embrace this fact today. I just find it so intriguing how some people have certain habits while some don’t. Of course, many habits are built when someone is a young child, but I think everyone has the power to build new, or change old, habits given the correct tools. So, today I am going to talk about building a reading habit. This is, in my opinion, one of the best habits you can have. It has many benefits, which I’ll do another post on, but briefly some are: increased empathy and vocabulary, better quality sleep and less stress. Just before jumping in, I want to just say: I am no expert. BUT I think I can provide valid advice on building reading habits, as I have a healthy reading habit, experience building my own habits and I have (nerdily) watched coun

The Future by Neassa

 Hi guys, I know Saoirse wrote a post about her future with the business, what we see happening in the future and where we want this to go. Although I love the sound of here future, I have my own path ahead of me, and it's a bit different. If you haven't read Saoirse's plans, they are: Writing blog posts and maintaining website (year-round, but specifically during COVID and winter) Car boots sales on Saturdays/Sundays during the year and a pop-up stall in summer. (After COVID and while I’m still in school) Pop-up stall as a part-time job (while in college) Actual shop (after graduating) As Saoirse mentioned in her post, right now we are living the dream. Just two normal sisters doing what they love to do. How could that be a bad thing? I am happy and content with we are doing right now, but don't feel as though that will always be the case. I, of course, want to stay a part of this business for as long as I possibly can, but I also have always wanted to be a teacher. I

Reading indoors vs. Reading outdoors

  Hi all, it’s Neassa and today I’m going to be listing the pros and cons of reading indoors versus reading outdoors, to find out which one reigns supreme! Just to begin, I would like to point out that I enjoy reading indoors and outdoors, so I am curious to see which one will win the battle of the reading spot. Reading indoors: Pros You are always warm and dry When you are reading indoors, the temperature doesn’t change along with the time, so i can begin to read when it was sunny and read straight through a thunderstorm without even noticing. The room will stay heated, I’ll stay cosy (and oblivious at times!) and everything is just right. You have the comfy chairs. I don’t know about you guys, but we have the most comfortable chairs inside. There are a few garden chairs outside, but they are not as comfortable as the big, cushioned chair where I love to curl up with a good book! You can play music When I am reading, I love to play soft, relaxing music that is said to improve concentr
