Beginner reader looking for light, meaningful non-fiction for short breaks

Hi everyone,

I’m preparing for a competitive exam and spend most of my day studying math and science. I’m new to reading and want to build the habit.

I’m looking for non-fiction that is:

• Easy to read (simple language)

• Not heavy or very technical

• Engaging enough to read in 10–15 minute sessions

I slightly prefer something that teaches or adds value in some way, but I’m open to any suggestions as long as it’s light and not intense.

Thanks in advance!
