Calling all book lovers! Do you love reading? Winter is a great time to sit by the fireplace with the flames crackling and lose yourself in a good book. Maybe you are a coffeeshop reader and you like to read books on your tablet, with the hum of conversations around you and the sounds of espressos and lattes being made. Or maybe you enjoy an audiobook while working out at the gym, tracking pages-read and miles-run. Whatever the setting, whatever the activity, it’s a great time to read!
