In this episode, the Nurturing Librarian addresses a variety of misconceptions about reading and sets out to debunk these myths.

She insists that reading should be viewed as a form of self-nourishing, not a competition.****Resources <a href="https://www.weareteachers.com/all-reading-counts/#:~:text=Our%20brain%20doesn't%20care,and%20access%20to%20text%20expands." target="_blank">All Reading is Reading</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/myths-reading-we-need-bust-bitelyai/" target="_blank">Book Myths</a>****Book News and Recs<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/199927030-the-lost-story?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=dbQWwvzCBx&rank=1" target="_blank">The Lost Story</a><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62004442-night-of-the-witch" target="_blank">Night of the Witch</a><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8667848-a-discovery-of-witches?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=8g4mBzjcHS&rank=1" target="_blank">Discovery of Witches</a><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9496240-the-hangman-s-daughter?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=DEx40rrg4N&rank=1" target="_blank">The Hangman’s Daughter</a><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/53916130-this-close-to-okay" target="_blank">This Close to Okay</a><a href="https://deadline.com/2024/10/liz-tigelaar-a-sociopaths-guide-to-a-successful-marriage-hulu-1236114090/" target="_blank">A Sociopath’s Guide to a Successful Murder</a>Connect with me on Insta and LinkedIn at The Nurturing Librarian****Looking for more book recs?
