I’m reading a book and according to Kindle, I’m 41% through it. But I’m about 97% sure I’m done with it. 

It’s a novel and I’ve learned that reading helps me get through 60 minutes on the elliptical machine. However, a book needs to be more than a tool for misery management. It should do at least one of 3 things: entertain, educate or encourage. The trifecta would be a book that does all 3. 

At 41% a person needs to take an assessment. Life is too short to read bad books. One could die on the elliptical machine. 

Any book suggestions for the new year?
