Reading is wonderful thing. Whether you’re opening your mind to a new world you could have never imagined, or learning something new that will improve your every day life, books are a great way to exercise your brain. March is National Reading Month and libraries and bookstores all across the metro Detroit area are celebrating with special events. Here are some we think you should check out.

Along with featuring authors and private book clubs throughout the month, Source Booksellers will be hosting their Mind, Body, & Spirit Classes every Saturday throughout March. Here is a list of different meditations and practices they will be teaching every week.
