When was the last time you were able to read a book? No, we don’t mean reading aloud to the kiddos, we mean getting some peace and quiet while relaxing and reading a book for adults. Moms in today’s crazy world don’t get much downtime. Fortunately, if you still want to be well-read, there is an app for that.

Blinkist gives you the key points from top non-fiction books and podcasts—condensed into 15-minute audio and text explainers that are perfect for busy moms’ schedules—so you can stay knowledgeable without dedicating hours to a book.
