    So many books, so little time? Headway might be your solution! 

    22nd June 2025 / 0 Comments

    Review of Headway, the Book Summary App As you might have guessed from my blog’s name, I’m an avid reader of personal development books and happily devour them from cover to cover, one right after the other. My biggest challenge is narrowing down my ever-growing ‘To Read’ list and deciding which book to pick up next!

    As we take tentative steps towards opening up our businesses and communities, as well as making our own personal emergence from lockdown, there will undoubtedly be a mixed bag of feelings and a whole range of different experiences. Maybe you have actually relished the time to pause or perhaps there was no time to pause at all and you were busier than ever. You might have had to spend time recovering from the virus or have endured a long period of isolation to shield yourself and other family members from it.
