1 . Do you know how to pick a good book you’ll really like? Here are some tips.
Start with your interest.
Pick your type. Do you prefer fiction or nonfiction (or both)? Fiction books, like novels, can transport you to another world or help you imagine something beyond your own experience. Nonfiction books give you the who, what, when, and why of something.
Read the description. The reviews and quotes on the back and inside covers of many books give you an idea of what the book is about. They can also help you pick future books, too. If you find a book you really like, take a minute to read the quotes and see which authors praised the book.
Find a family favorite. Which book did your mother love best when she was at your age?
Find a quiet place and make time for the book.
