This Book is Like a Video Game Power-Up
I was lucky enough to get an advance copy of this book, and I have to say that this book really is a game changer. Nick Hutchison has literally read hundreds of self-help books and he has developed his own system to both MASTER and APPLY the things that he learns from books. It's honestly surprising that no one has done this before.Like have you ever read a self-help book that got you really excited about learning something new? Like maybe changing some old bad habits into some new good habits? But then, after you finish reading the book, nothing actually changes and you just go back to your old ways?Don't feel bad. This is actually super common. This is why Nick wrote this book, the Rise of the Reader. When you implement the frameworks that Nick has developed and laid out in his book, your life will literally start to change for the better. Like imagine where your life would be if you actually applied the things that you've learned from the books that you've read over the years? How awesome would that be?In this book, Nick will show you how to find the time to read and you'll be excited about it.He will also show you how to start reading with real intention instead of just reading passively or for pleasure. You'll get so much out of this book because this book shows you how to get so much more out of other books! It will make you want to go back and re-read some of your favorite books with a fresh perspective. Highly, highly recommended. 5-stars all around. A big thank you to Nick for taking the time to write this book and share it with the world.

“Rise of the Reader” is a valuable resource by Nick Hutchison for anyone seeking to harness the power of reading for personal growth and transformation. Offering practical guidance and inspiration, this book outlines many empowering daily habits and ways to apply them for maximum results. I’ve read more self-improvement books than I can count but this one definitely takes the road less traveled, with a fresh unique perspective. After reading, I found myself not only retaining the knowledge I was in search of but embracing the changes that came next. I found myself digging a little deeper with each chapter and offer this recommendation to any of my colleagues and clients looking to do the same.

This was a really great book for me! I decided to start reading again after listening to the author on a podcast. This book was exactly what I needed to get me back into reading, as I am very curious person. It frames why you should read, as well as give you tools to help you retain more from what you read. That is the challenge I have with reading and it helped me reframe to retain more. I had at least 10 actionable takeaways from the book and am already on my next book, as well as created my list of the next books to look up to read. It is such an easy read and I enjoyed sitting down to read it each day! I finished it in 6 days!

This is a quick read that gives great tips, not just on reading, but on a number of other subjects. It is hard to motivate someone to read with just the written word, but I believe Nick Hutchison has done just that. Just buy the book, read it, take notes and implement what you learn.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unleash the life-changing Power of Books
Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2023

Rise of the Reader has a fundamental mission: to help you get the most out of the books you read and apply their lessons to transform your life.
It’s one thing to read a good book, but it’s a different one to put into practice the ideas in it. We easily fall into the habit of moving from one book to the next without doing the important work: implementation. We forget that a life-changing book can’t be life-changing if we don’t apply its lessons. Here is where Nick’s book comes in. Rise of the Reader is designed to help you unlock all the life-changing power of the books you read. Think of it as an implementation guide for all your reading, a book that will show you how to get the most out of every book you pick up.

Nick’s writing is simple and direct. The book is easy to read and feels like having a chat with a good friend. The style also comes through as from a person who has walked the walk. You feel like learning from someone who’s gone through the journey, faced the problems you are facing, and made it his purpose to share his wisdom so you can take advantage of it.

As an author, I love hearing when someone likes my book (what author doesn’t?), but what makes the most impact is when I hear how someone used the content of my book to transform their life.
There’s an unspoken agreement between authors and readers. Authors write the best they have to say in the best way they can say it, that’s their part. But no author, no matter how good they are, can do the work for the reader through the pages. That’s where the reader part comes in: to implement the lessons, experience, and wisdom that the author shares with them.
The underlying dialogue is like the author saying “Let me show you how to improve your life,” and as readers, we should respond “Great, I’ll now use that to improve my life.”
Nick manages to bridge the gap and not only shows you how to improve your life but also guides you through the process of implementing great ideas so you can become "healthier, wealthier, and happier."

Overall, a great read and will become my go-to recommendation for those getting into self-development and having trouble choosing where to start or those wanting to get the most out of their reading and learning.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bom, mas raso
Reviewed in Brazil on March 21, 2024

Sigo o autor nas redes sociais e decidi comprar o livro, por estar interessada no tema. O livro cita muitas referências, outros livros, citações, regras e paradoxos. Mas faltou um pouco mais de sequência lógica, um pouco mais de densidade e objetividade por vezes… repetiu bastante os pontos e argumentos. Sinceramente a falta foi de um editor ou escritor profissional por trás, não sei. Faltou engajamento com a história, metáforas e maior encadeamento de ideias.

Livro prático e rápido de ler, com uma coletânea de dicas e referências para você aprender a ler mais e melhor. Faltou um pouco de autoralidade e densidade nas abordagem, história, estudos e metáforas. Além disso, o livro foi um pouco repetitivo nas suas argumentações. Parece-me que faltou uma revisão na edição final.

O livro traz ótimas referências e cita vários livros importantes. O que já me estimulou para ler mais e buscar novos títulos. Há grande ênfase no livro do Tim Ferris “Trabalhe 4 horas por semana”, que, apesar de já ter um certo tempo e precisar de atualizações frente as novas tendências e seus insights, continua sendo uma base forte para mindset e estilo de vida! You go, Tim! Este livro foi muito importante pra mim e observo que pra diversas pessoas também Bruno Perini quando começamos a ler mais.

Ao final do livro, há um “outro” livro. Dicas de saúde, financas, felicidade e insights do autor quanto a estes tópicos. Queria que o livro em si fosse maior e mais profundo em seu conteúdo original, apesar desta parte final ser interessante, mas pra mim, seria um segundo livro!

Gostei do ritmo do livro. Leitura rápida e objetiva. Bom pra quem quer começar a ler ou aprender mesmo sobre o assunto.

Having followed the BookThinkers Instagram and listed to the Podcast for quite some time, it was great to see Nicks body of work encapsulated in his book - Rise of the Reader.

His passion for self improvement and the love of reading really shines through and this book does a great job condensing so much into a few hundred pages. If you are looking for somewhere to start this book is a must.

His book layout is excellent for a full read and also as a way you can check back in to his condensed single page lessons at the back half.

Highly recommend and is a perfect place to start if you want to get into self improvement and more so reading to better your life. Well done Nick

3.0 out of 5 stars Un libro sobre como aprovechar la lectura de libros de desarrollo personal
Reviewed in Spain on January 20, 2024
Verified Purchase
Yo esperaba en este libro una versión moderna de "How to read a book" o más metodología para tomar notas y aprovechar la lectura de cualquier libro. Sin embargo, se centra más en la lectura de libros de desarrollo personal y como poner en acción lo que se lee. Para ello usa montones de conceptos que ya conocía, desde conceptos de creación de hábitos que se pueden encontrar en Atomic habits de James Clear, diferentes ideas de psicología para favorecer tener costumbre de lectura diarias, etc.

Entonces, en realidad me ha parecido un refrito de conceptos, y solo la mitad del libro es sobre leer libros, la segunda mitad son tips sacados de otros libros para mejorar ciertos aspectos de la vida, y esto ha sido casi lo más sorprendente porque he encontrado alguno para mejorar la calidad del sueño que me ha funcionado.

En conclusión, es un meta-libro de desarrollo personal, de alguien que ha leído todos los libros típicos en el género y alguno más, y se centra en como leerlos e intentar tomar notas y poner en práctica lo que lees. De hecho te puede dar una visión general de todos los temas que se tocan en este tipo de libros y puede dirigirte a leer a algún otro autor de los que menciona. Sin embargo como libro sobre leer y técnicas de lectura lo veo algo justo de contenido.
