If you want to turn your passion for reading into a profession, here are three interesting career options you may want to consider:

1. Librarian
This is an obvious choice for anyone who loves to read. Librarians must have excellent research and communication skills, as well as a passion for helping others. If you’re eager to share your literary knowledge with like-minded people, this may be the job for you.

2. Editor
Editors must have impeccable writing and grammar skills to create error-free content in a variety of fields. Though many editors work on a freelance basis, there are also full-time editing jobs available at local newspapers and publishing houses. If you have a keen eye for detail and enjoy creating polished pieces of writing, becoming an editor may be a good career choice.

3. Book scout
Book scouts are usually hired by publishers, agents, or film studios to scour books, manuscripts, and other written material worth publishing in a new market. In essence, their job is to find the next big thing so fo¬reign publishers can pick up the rights. If the thought of reading a wide variety of content excites you, becoming a book scout could be a career worth pursuing.

There are plenty of other career options out there for people who love literacy and words, including becoming a teacher, blogger, book reviewer, and more.
