 1. You will discover surprises- As you read more books as a source of information, you will learn stuff that you were not looking for. For example, you may read loads of quotes on life and love by reading books on marketing. You could learn facts about biology from reading about Chemistry. You could even pick up some facts about history when reading about computers and programming. Since so many subjects link in and intertwine it is almost impossible not to learn something other than the book's subject. This point also links to the point of how reading will make you smarter.

2. Reading eases symptoms of depression- Studies have indicated that reading may be very beneficial to ease the symptoms of depression. Therapeutic help in combination with self-help books or even fictional books could ease the symptoms of depression much better and faster than therapy alone. So reading books, particularly books that offer advice or include themes and characters you can relate to, are great for improving your mental health. Furthermore, after such a stressful year I am sure depression has increased and so why not make the habit of reading increase also?
