10 ways to celebrate national book lovers day.

How excited was I when I turned on the news this morning only to see a segment about National Book Lovers Day!?! Honestly, I had no idea this day existed but I guess there is a holiday for just about everything.

National Book Lovers Day takes place every year on August 9. It’s a day to encourage the joy and fun of reading. This is one holiday I can get behind!

I think I definitely qualify as a book lover. I love reading books, buying books, lending books, recommending books, and just anything to do with books. I love meeting new characters and losing myself in a story.

Here are 10 ways to celebrate National Book Lovers Day:

1. Visit your local library
2. Give your favorite book as a gift
3. Leave a book review on your favorite social media site
4. Reread one of your best-loved books
5. Donate a book (or two) to a little free library
6. Read a new-to-you author’s backlist
7. Listen to a podcast about books or reading
8. Start a book club with some of your friends
9. Watch the newest book adaptation
10. And, of course, read!!!
