How to Pick a Book Part 8

When deciding on a book to read, the reader should try to make a connection with the book. This connection can be small or great. By making a connection to something in the reader's life, to something they have read or heard read, or to something going on in the world, the reader is more likely to stay with the book. If the reader cannot relate the book to anything they have experienced or learned about, then there is little to hold him/her to that book.
