Every Day I Read: 53 Ways to Get Closer to Books by Hwang Bo-ReumMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is a charming book, written originally by Hwang Bo-Reum in Korean and translated to English by Shanna Tan. There are 53 chapters, each about three pages long. She covers a lot of bookish and reading subjects in these 215 pages -- how to start reading again, how to select books (read small books, read big books, read bestsellers), how to track books (keep a reading list, organize your bookcase), and much much more!
It's very easy to read just one essay at a time, then pick it up again later to read another essay. In fact, the author and publisher originally bundled a weekly planner with each book, intending the reader to read one essay a week over the course of a year.
I would recommend this book for anyone who loves books and reading! This is the first book that she has written, but has subsequently Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop. This book is about a young very stressed woman who quits her job, divorces her husband, moves to a small neighborhood and opens a bookstore. It's definitely on the short list of books that I would like to read this year! https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/133938826-welcome-to-the-hyunam-dong-bookshop
