Honestly, what helped me was a Great Books class in 9th grade. I had to read about 100 pgs a week of ancient Greek literature, which at the time was such a challenge for me. Despite all my complaints at the time, being forced to read regularly really strengthened my reading speed, and now I’m completely in love with reading! I’m even a Literature major like my mum.

I loved my childhood reading. My dad was a big part of that, as he and my mom made a point to have books in every room of the house, and to always say yes to a story. One thing that made a difference for me was reading abridged/ children's editions of Classic Books, like Little Women or Black Beauty. I was able to fall in love with the characters and their own little worlds. Then as I got older I was able to read these timeless stories and also fall in love with the author's style of writing.

I read to my kids every night and hope to continue that. I hope it creates a love of reading within them.
