Reading is good for us, no matter which way you look at it. We all know it, but many of us avoid getting into the habit because we think we won’t enjoy it. Usually, all it takes is picking up the right book that sparks our interest.
If you’re not sure what to read, here are a few suggestions of what you can add to your ‘To Be Read’ list in 2022.
Table of Contents
Something Spiritual
If you’re religious, starting here can make things easy. Instead of just reading your Bible or the daily devotional on your app, pick up a faith-based book to read before you go to sleep.
You might want to seek out a Christian book that isn’t the Bible – something that helps you gain perspective, find comfort, feel fulfilled or learn something new on your journey with God.
Something on Your Hobby
If you’re passionate about something like making music, gardening, cooking, baking, a particular sport, filmmaking, you name it, you could pick up a book about it.
You might read something that will teach you to be better at your hobby, learn about the history of it, or even read the biography of someone who was a professional in the field – such as your favourite chef or sportsman.
Something About Finance
Learning how to work with money can be overwhelming, but it’s crucial to your self-development and future planning.
Avoid advanced material and instead, pick up a book on the very basics of personal finance. You’ll be able to get a better grip on budgeting, taxes, savings, investing and other essentials you should know about, but without the scary jargon and technicalities.
Something About Nutrition
We all need to eat to live, but how many of us understand what we’re putting in our bodies and the effects it can have on us?
Picking up a book on nutrition can help to change your perspective on your health and the things you eat. Make sure you read only highly-rated nutrition books to avoid poorly researched “advice”.
Something About Raising Kids
If you’re expecting, hoping to start a family, just had a baby or even have older kids, parenting books can offer useful insight and perspective on your journey.
It’s not uncommon to have countless questions about raising a family, even if you already have children and have been around the block. There are so many books that can help answer your questions – just remember that you don’t have to take their advice.
Something About Business
You don’t have to be an aspiring entrepreneur to learn a thing or two about business. Often, the information provided in these books can be widely applicable to many professions.
However, if you are considering starting that side-hustle of yours, a book on business will offer incredible value to your career.
Something Fictional
If you’ve never been a reader or haven’t been into fiction, it can be hard to know what to read – there are countless different genres and styles!
Try out a few fiction books in genres that you think you might enjoy, and use apps like Goodreads or Storygraph to get more recommendations based on what you end up liking.
