Description

In this episode, I talk about reading—not as a task or an obligation, but as a deeply human habit. I share my personal experience of growing up with books, especially fiction, and how stories shaped my curiosity, emotions, and way of exploring the world.


We discuss the common question, “What should I read?” and why the answer depends on your purpose, not on rules set by others. I also reflect on the difference between fiction and self-help books, and how fiction teaches us important life lessons indirectly, through emotions and imagination.


For English learners, this episode offers a gentle reminder: you don’t always have to read English books to improve English. Reading in your native language—fiction or non-fiction—helps build emotional awareness, creativity, and structured thinking, which naturally supports language learning.


This episode is an invitation to read with freedom, curiosity, and enjoyment.
