Highly Readable Books to Jumpstart Your Reading Habit

 Many people fear that if they don’t find the best books to start a reading habit right away, they’ll get bored and quit.

Maybe you’ve already tried and quit. 

I get it. It can be discouraging to find that a wildly popular book doesn’t work for you–because if it worked for so many others, shouldn’t you love it, too?

Starting with an open, beginner mindset will help you find the books that will get you into reading–because you read for yourself and no one else.


To get you started, I’ve put together a list of compulsively readable books to help you fall in love with reading and start making reading a habit in your life. 



  • The Art of Racing in the Rain: A Novel

A must-read for animal lovers, you'll fall in love with ENZO (an aging dog who wishes he had thumbs) and won’t be able to resist the story of his and his best friend’s relationship.


  • The Language of Flowers: A Novel


I couldn’t put down this book about a young woman who has aged out of foster care and discovered her unique talent of matching people with exactly the right flowers.

  

  • This Is How It Always Is: A Novel

 A truly contemporary family novel that follows Claude (who wants to be Poppy) and the family that does their best to support that decision in a world that doesn’t make it easy.

  • Everyone Brave is Forgiven
A highly readable and surprisingly irreverent World War II novel, Chris Cleave’s unique writing style will pull you in. I also covered this one in The Story of the Story: Everyone Brave Is Forgiven.


  • Fierce Kingdom: A Novel 
This book is expertly made thriller which is about a mother and her young son trapped in a zoo with a shooter on the loose. It’s one of very few books that I finished in one sitting.
