>I'm shooting for 3 books this year, and that's a 200% increase over last year!

I'm gonna countersignal the other guy who replied to you and tell you that this is great news. I have had years in my life when I have read 40+ books, and years where I have read none at all. Setting a goal to carve off time for reading is huge. There is something special about books, something no other form of media does in terms of engaging your brain as an active participant. It's good for you.



I like reading books though I don't read nearly as many as I used to. It's one reason that I'm in the camp of going meh when people go on about needing free WiFi on flights. It's one of the few times I really unplug. OK, I watch videos and play games too but I don't actually miss being offline for 6-12 hours.
