What Matt is reading

We concluded our conversation by sharing what we know about ourselves as readers.

The following questions helped guide our conversation:

* Why are you reading what you are reading?

* What has resonated with you so far?

* What have you learned about yourself as a reader?

These questions can also serve to support engagement, understanding, and identity.
