Reading is just plain good for the soul. We show you how to set up the perfect space for it in your own home.
We’re a land of readers, with 88 per cent of Kiwis reporting they read, or started to read, at least one book over the last 12 months. Most of us read for relaxation and enjoyment and we read an average of 20.6 books a year. This is great because there are many benefits to getting lost between the covers of a good page-turner – increased vocabulary and brain power, and greater empathy, among others. And we think that’s all the excuse you need to create a space in your home dedicated to the written word.
