BOOK HAUL
Hey there! I've really started reading books recently! Especially books in English.
Few years ago my English were sooo bad I could not even understand TV shows or movies without subtitles. I've studied English in school of course but my grades were not the best...
The first book I ever read in English were "Oliver Twist" by Charles Dickens and I only understood few word. Now I've read more and more books and I can finally understand everything! Okay there are few words that I still have to google but other than that I can understand everything. Only some words I just cannot remember and then I google and then I google again and again until I finally remember!
Few months ago I started reading "Harry Potter" for the first time! I have never been into "Harry Potter" before until few months ago I finally saw all 8 movies and I really really liked them!
But "Harry Potter" books have been the hardest to read so far. There are sooo many strange words in there but it gets easier with every book. So far I've read "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" the first book and I've read the second book "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets". And I already have the third book "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban". I absolutely LOVE the covers of these books! Release date 2014.
Here I also have "If I Stay" by Gayle Forman. It was good but I have to say i'm just not that into this young love kind of books. They end up being pretty much all the same. This one was actually a little bit different though. There were a girl in coma who can still see and hear everything. So that was interesting. There's a movie also based on that book but the emotions were not that intense in the movie. But that's understandable.
And ALSO why I like reading books in English is that it is a lot cheaper this way. I really like owning books and then read them again whenever I want so that's why I like to buy them not just get one from the library. For example translated version of "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" is 17 EUR but the Englsih version is only 9.30 EUR.
