Badges Keep Readers Motivated
“I wasn't going to read tonight, but I saw I was 2 days away from my 30-day streak badge. That was all the motivation I needed to pick up my book.”
Chris D.
30-day streak achiever
“My kids and I compete to see who can earn more badges each month. It turned reading into a family game and we all read more because of it.”
Maria L.
Family reader
“The Genre Explorer badge pushed me to read outside my comfort zone. I tried sci-fi for the first time and it's now one of my favorite genres.”
Patrick O.
