Estimated reading time: 1 minute

Every day the average person reads thousands of words. These words come in all forms, from cooking instructions on a food tin, a WhatsApp on our phones or a glance at the heading of a promotional pamphlet that plops through our front door. We cannot avoid words. But meaningful reading, whether for work or pleasure is something else. There is nothing like escaping into a well written book. Sometimes I am so tired, I need the simplest of words to carry me away to sleep. Other times, I just love beautiful language where I get lost in the sense of the words. When writing, I am reading to learn, to find facts or carry my research deeper. On this blog, I will share with you what I am reading.
