Hello, beautiful and handsome friends! It is Wednesday noon here in this part of the world. I went out to buy new books - The Art of Thinking Clearly and The Practice of Not Thinking. I am an over thinker. I tend to over think most of the time which is not good for my mental health. I do hope I’d learn something from these books - to alleviate my overthinking issues, etc. Do you like reading books?

@freelancermariagrace Enjoy your new books and hope they help you. Yes, I love to read. I have a used bookstore in town that I love to go to and buy books and return books to them also.

@freelancermariagrace You are welcome. I like action, thrillers, mysteries. I go to a section at the bookstore and read the back covers and see if something interests me or not or go to those I like to read their books.

I love reading books. And especially these kind of self help books. These titles sound so interesting. And you will be reading two different views. That would be fun and interesting

@freelancermariagrace I love reading books especially these self help ones. But these days I don't get much time to read. I read only books related to my job as a counselor and special educator. But even they are helpful. Glad that the book is good and you like it

@arunima25 I see. I sure being a counselor and special educator eats a lot of your time. I hope you’d get to read self help books again when you have the time. Stay safe, dear

Wow thats a great way to deal with overthinking, i have always loved books, honestly they help me relax and forget about everything. I mostly read self development books but there are times I treat myself to a nice novel.

I do like reading books I read at least one book per month. But I never buy them. Unless it's reaaaally good and I'm going to look up stuff in it every now and then..
