By the Book: How To Restart Your Reading Habit

Do you consider yourself a reader, and yet sometimes find yourself struggling to actually read a book? You're not alone. In this week's show, we share our own challenges with occasionally falling out of love with the act of reading, and the kinds of books that have helped us rediscover that joy. We close off our conversation with lessons public libraries could learn from coffee shops.
