“What should I read?” – My Book Recommendations
What book should you read? People ask me this all the time, so in today’s video, I will give you my recommendations of English books you can read. These books are from different decades. I have quoted from the beginning of each book, to give an idea of its style and subject. I hope you find something here to follow up on and read in full! For a discussion about books and reading with other readers, watch this video next.Levels

Thanks for recommend! I will choose a book which is attractive for me!
I give up being able to speak English, I earn it, I recognize it with nobility and dignity, after several years of learning and using all the methods of the market dedicating effort, time, money and considering that my intelligence is normal (standard) I am a professional with specialization and several graduates… I have to be realistic with myself and admit it, the frustration is great with English, I outdo myself, I hope to get out of this situation as soon as possible and not insist again on languages trying to obtain other possibilities in my personal growth and loboral.
Hi – thanks for posting – please don’t despair.I can tell from your writing that you’ve got a long way with English. Speaking is just one part of any language, together with listening, reading and writing. I hope you can enjoy English, and not worry too much about it – don’t be too self-critical. Wishing you all the best with your studies :-)
Interesting to me, Gill, so thank you.
I’m not a big reader but I would like to learn English to be almost fluent and I will continue my search on the internet to find the book I could enjoy in English. I particularly like historical novels. If by any chance you have a suggestion, I’ll appreciate it.
Hi – thanks for posting. You could try googling ‘EFL easy books’ and choose something from there. Wishing you all the best with your studies :-)
Thank you very much ?
hello evrybody
I really appreciate that
Hello…I’d like to brush my speaking up. Is there anyone else who is interested in speaking to me on a regular basis? My whatsapp number is +88 01812788727. Thank you. Rasho.
Thank you. I have already read a couple of books in that list- Pride and Prejudice, and, Jane Eyre. I am waiting to read others as well. Thank you once again for your recommendation and the brief introduction of those.
Hello mam i need training english basic
Hello Gill. Your recommendation list is very inspiring. I`m really amazed finding out that I`ve read a book from your highly recommended ones. It`s Jane Eyre. What struck me most is the book is light years ahead of its time. I`m talking about the feminism as a social movement, a new type of human mindset, etc. I suppose Jane Eyre represents fearless, self-denying, stedy who is able to stand up for other people. Despite having to continue living under threat she didn`t break down, went through this way with honour and dignity. Reading this book is worth it.
Thank you Gill. I already read “1984”, very dark. “Pride and Prejudice” was too difficult for me. So I try to find funny books to read. No so easy :-). But reading novels is a really good way to improve vocabulary, even if it’s not always easy to understand. Luckily, I use a Kindle… very helpful !!!
