Is reading trendy? Depends on who you ask, but we say yes. If you want to join the conversation but can’t commit to reading full-length books, this is a clever solution.
Headway’s book summary app condenses what would normally be several hours of reading into only 15 minutes. While you don’t get access to the whole book, you’ll get its key ideas and insights. Mashable readers can get lifetime access here for only £49.14 (reg. £245.71).
Use Headway to fight FOMO
How many times have you seen someone share a book online and thought, ‘I should read that,’ but you know you’ll never actually get around to it? Headway changes your mentality completely since you now only need 15 minutes to read or listen to its summary.
As you listen and rate summaries, the app learns what you like or dislike. From that, you’ll get personalised book recommendations, just like you’re in a real book club.
Explore more than 1,500 nonfiction book summaries and some fiction ones, too. There’ll be something new to check out whenever you open the app. You’ll recognise a lot of these titles:
Atomic Habits
Total Recall (Arnold Schwarzenegger’s autobiography)
The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
To Kill a Mockingbird
Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff … and It’s All Small Stuff
The Headway app also motivates you to come back with a daily learning streak, trophies and achievements, and challenges. You might take a 14-day Self-Confidence challenge, listen to the pre-selected books each day, and earn three trophies by the end.
