When it comes to selecting a book to read, the process can often be overwhelming and intimidating, particularly if you are relatively new to the world of reading and haven't had the chance to explore it extensively.
That's why I reached out to Nick Hutchinson, founder of Book Thinkers, a renowned platform dedicated to promoting the love of reading and personal development. I sought his expertise on the art of selecting the perfect book, reading with purpose and intention, and effectively applying the knowledge gained from your reading materials to your everyday life.
