Reading, one of my hobbies.

• Do you like reading?

• How often do you read? • What do you read? 
• What is the last book you read for pleasure and what did you like about it? 
• What reading strategies do you use?


 I like reading, this is one of my favorite hobbies. There are some benefits which learners of another language can acquire in the moment of reading that are: new vocabulary, more fluency in speaking (only if the reading is aloud), improve your concentration, improve your brain and train it too. I read two books every two months, but if I can I read a little bit more. Every day I also read different newspapers all over the world. The last book that I read is “¿Cuánto cuesta matar a un hombre?” and I liked the reality of it and the stories that it tells. Reading it book I know the history of the last two decades of Colombia, specially of Medellin and its surroundings. My strategy during the reading is to concentrate too much, try to take out any noise and the most important is to question myself if I am understanding the reading.
