Too much reading is a bad habit. No one likes a girl who squints.

About This Quote

Reading is a great habit, even if you don’t like squinting. It’s good to read books that will expand your vocabulary and help you improve your writing and reading skills. You can even read books on subjects you already know about to brush up on things and make new connections. But, if you keep reading books and don’t like it, you’ll eventually stop.

There are many other habits you could pick up instead of reading every day, such as exercising or playing video games, that will have a much greater impact on your life. You never know when those new habits might come in handy, especially if you need them some day to help you win a contest or get a job promotion.
