Leading on from the last post.... it is quite a ridiculous state of affairs.... when I cannot find the time to read books.... some of you know that since I was a kid... I have loved devouring books... The only time that I relish reading.. is when I get a long break.. summer holidays - I read pretty quickly.... 200 pages in a day.. sometimes I finish thick books in 2 weeks only! My mum, on the other hand takes forever to read a single page.... a 200 page book... she struggles to even read that much.... it takes her a month or so to get through it... having said all that.. each person to their own I guess.. as the saying goes! Although, I was able to read about 10-20 pages of a book titled "La Prisonnaire" by Malika Oufkir (this book is about the Moroccan royal family and post-colonial politics and political prisoners - which appeals to me!)
I always believe that you should read any genre that interests you. For kids doing English in High School, you have to read a "specified genre"... I didn't like to told what to read.. By reading whatever books they want, children learn new words/terminology which allows them to express themselves better.
I didn't intend to make this post meaningful about life, but as you can see as a result of my reading, I can always express myself in an elequent way.
Righto, the tutorial will begin in five minutes.. so I will put my mind to it.
