One of her favorite books: Atomic Habits by James Clear
Why it’s her favorite book: Atomic Habits is one of my favorite books because it's easy to read and relatable, offering clear insights into the why and how of building habits rather than just pushing you to take action. This resonates deeply with my experience during Ramadan, a month dedicated to self-reflection and growth, as it encourages the establishment of positive habits and personal development, perfectly aligning with the book's principles.
