About Obia
Worldwide reports show a declining preference for books as entertainment, despite the unique mind benefits of reading things we enjoy. Reading is often advocated for mandatory (boring) reasons like work or school. OBIA is my personal response to this context, a new book blog that celebrates reading for pleasure.
