My Kindle has completely transformed my reading habits.

Back in March, my husband gave me a Kindle because I had made it a goal to get back into reading this year. I hadn’t been reading regularly for years, and honestly, I didn’t expect a device to make such a big difference.

Ever since I got it, I’ve been reading every single day. So far this year, I’ve read 20 books. Even during some very stressful periods at work, I never skipped my daily reading time. In fact, it became the thing that helped me manage my anxiety the most.

I recently saw someone here say they felt embarrassed about using a Kindle in public. I’m the complete opposite. It’s so convenient that I’ll read anywhere I get the chance.

This past school year, for example, I had a one-hour bus ride to work every day. At first, I thought it was going to be exhausting, but I ended up loving it because it gave me a whole hour to read. I arrived at school feeling much calmer and more relaxed.

As a high school Spanish Language and Literature teacher, I’ve always been a strong advocate for physical books. But owning a Kindle has completely changed my perspective. I still love paper books, but my Kindle has achieved something I never expected: it turned reading into a daily habit. And in the end, that’s what matters most.

**P.S.** :The other day, thanks to this subreddit, I found out that you can track your reading streak in the Kindle app. I checked mine and was pleasantly surprised by how well I’d been doing. The only days I missed were the ones when I was completely overwhelmed with work and simply couldn’t fit any reading into my day.
