I am not a native English speaker, and I randomly picked this book by its title to improve my English skills. Even though I work at a library, I have never completed a book before. Surprisingly, I fell in love with Nicola’s writing style and finished reading Positively Teenage. Here I am, writing a comment, and I am very proud of myself for doing this.

PS- I couldn’t locate the Readaxation diary.

Love this Nicola! I was a librarian and think the term 'readaxation' is brilliant. Choosing the right book is key as you say, so having lots of choice is important. I've always let my children read what they want (age appropriate obviously), even if I'm not keen on it myself as it has to be their choice. I will try the holiday reading pledge as I absolutely love to read but find I have little time for it.
